Thought you would like to see this. Here's what a Fort Frontier looks like brand new on the sprue. That being said, these are actually newer castings made with the original tooling and were quite plentiful in the '90s and early 2000s. Since then the supply seems to have dried up except for one seller that seems to have latched on to a bunch. Unlike the Marx Fort Apache walls, these MPC forts were not expandable as the side walls were integrally molded with either the front or back wall. On the plus side, if you don't have a lot of room for the larger Marx forts, this one uses only a small bit of real estate. This one-piece casting measure 9" (22.86cm) x 16 1/2" (41.91cm) and is better suited to MPC's line of 45mm figures - even though MPC had no qualms about throwing in their oversized ringhands in playsets. Enjoy! Opa Fritz
