These sets probably have been out for a long time in the US, but they're
new here in Sweden. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked into my
local toy store today  and found it full of new sets. I bought the 5921
and 5935.

There are some useful/cool pieces here, first it's the pteranodon! A
dinosaur! Cool! Then there's the brown propeller, white castle lance,
1*2 red bricks with clips on side (I've never seen them before) the
gray, green and brown bricks, the round 2*2 tan tile and the leaves.

Other parts of interest are the light gray chain (the usually come in
dark gray), the white antenna, and the 2*1 gray brick with X-shaped hole.

The model is really nice, it's a tree with a nest (I think) on top, for
the pteranodon. The minifig (Which by the way has a new cap) has a
strange thing he can fly on (I doubt that it would fly in real life),
and a chain to catch the pteranodon with.

The craft is pretty swooschable, and the wings can be tilted up/down.
The pteranodon is also swooschable, and it looks cool on top of the tree.

The set is not very expensive, and has good parts.

I recommend it.

(...) The brick with the clip on the side has appeared at least as early as last year. The Naboo Swamp set uses several to hold the "vines". (...) The cap is the kepi from wild west, now in brown. It also has appeared in blue (wild west), dark grey (...) (24 years ago, 23-Sep-00, to lugnet.reviews)
