the yellow birds (a pair) were in the adventurer's set from last year that came
with a gold carrying case. can't find or recall # and name... i hate it when
that happens!....
~ so much so, that i rifled through my instructions file. it's set #5919, a
neat little temple & tomb w/ vehicle. rather skimpy as a set, but containing
useable pieces. also a pair of red snakes, & a pair of grey birds as well.

The flags on mine broke too- only from this set, and only the flags, not the
cannnon covers. I have this peice in a lot of other sets and they're fine.
This is the same peice as the speed flaps on the Snowspeeder- wrong color of
course.

Thanks Craigo,
Now I just need to replace the big flag from the 6274 and it will be all
there. I guess I'll try consumer affairs. Did that big flag come in any
smaller sets? Oddly enough none of the blue flags broke, just the printed
flags.

Have fun!

It's been in a bunch of sets. Also fairly available on the auction
circuit. I might be able to spare one if consumer affairs turns up dry.

5919 ? Odd, the other day I saw a 3722 'Treasure Tomb' co-pack in a TRU
for $20.
Ahhhhh... and lo, Pause says:
'This set is a U.S. Toys'R'Us exclusive version of 5919. Comes packaged
with a gold-colored, heavy plastic case (like those previously seen
bundled with Space and TECHNIC sets). Sticker on shrink wrap mentions
50th anniversary of TRU. Building instruction booklet inside this box
says 5919 and not 3722.'
so it *is* the same set we are speaking of.
