Wow! Just saw your vid on the Alamo set and I see this one too!! Yep,.. I had this set too as a kid!! Hahaha! So flipping cool!!! Just noticed a short clip of the Sears Heritage Set you have too. Did you collect everything I had as a kid?? How about the original G.I. Joe? Some of the outfits, chopper, jeep or tank?

I actually had that set as a kid! So cool to take a walk down memory lane!!!

Really cool set Greatest Toys Ever Made, thank you for showing us.

Thanks! I remember having and playing with this playset back in the 1960s. I remember putting together the fort's walls.

Sadly I was not alive during this time period I am fortunate to have TimMee and BMC Reissues and some Marx re issues, but this will be something I will hope to get one day even though it is over $200

The Khaki troops are British.

Wonderful video. 😊

Wonderful video. 😊

Wonderful video. 😊

Have you ever seen “the big inch pipeline set?”

Cool, I have my soldiers from the early 90s still. I was born in 1989, I can remember all the awesome stuff from the 90s.

Awesome set, you really seem to take care of those boxes. Red for British, blue for American!

My brother and I had Fort Apache in the 60s, went with Johnny west doll. Made of cardboard. I think the date is about 2 decades off. You say this set is from the early 50s I don’t think plastic became common until the mid 60s. Thanks for the video.

You'd think they would have given the titular figure, Rinty, a more distinctive color and appearance than cream.

I don't know how you do it, but you keep your stuff in such good condition.

As a kid in the 80s i had basiclly every one of those and the ring also it was all i would ask for my birthday and christmas

these sets are works of art!

I'm thinking the box I had was different but the "door and bricks" look familiar, I probably threw away the box or they made a new one later; I always had the radio on in our playroom downstairs which played the same, stupid shit that played for decades--Foreigner, Foghat and Loverboy were also, therefore, part of this set and crucial to the war--"Turn Me Loose" and "Cold As Ice" were the background music as CO's gave pep talks to their troops. The problem with being downstairs, though, is you had to turn the lights off when you left--you were also often alone--lights off darkened everything, the lights were also way in the back--as soon as you hit the switch you had to run for your life up the stairs before some monster reached you from under the staircase--monsters are especially fond of the legs and there is nothing you can do if they got ahold of one of them. I'd be up those stairs in a heartbeat--I was probably upstairs before the lights were out. One time we had friends over during the day--but for years I never fathomed a certain event that I still find hard to believe actually happened, but it did because I was there. We had a wooden staircase that went downstairs--monsters, though, wouldn't be under there during the day--they only worked the night shift. At any rate, this kid--who I barely remember now but remembered fully at the time--our house was popular, nearly everyone came over--he threw himself down the stairs face first like it was nothing right away (with his arms tucked under his chest, or so I recall, kind of peek-a-boo style but lower). He caught air on the way down too, as we watched, he threw himself down the stairs like he was jumping in a swimming pool--but for years I was too dumb to have ever considered why he was so eager to do it.

Classic Toy Soldiers,Inc. sells a Chi ha tank that would make this set complete.

Just wicked Cool ! Just found your channel , was wondering if you've done one on the Guns of Navarone play set and the Battle of the Bulge play set. ?

I got Marx sets for Christmas each year the cowboys were always the same, but the lead characters differed in each set, they were great!

О...о...целая крепость...было где разыграться...В моем детстве крепости были из песка и земли...😢😂

Такой бы набор...до в 1979 году...был бы счастлив!...😢😂

This is the play set that kids nowadays would wish they where still on shelves

Nice

Orange is one of the more difficult colours to get your hands on. I hade to go online to find pink army men, and I hade to wait 4 years to get hold of purple, yellow and orange. BMC toys sell every colour, including the pink soldiers. They also now do army women.

Got one on steroids.

Bellissimo!

Man these are so COOL!!! Thanks for sharing

It’s a wonder that someone doesn’t remake some of these great Marx sets

That's so cool 😎

SO JEALOUS!!!!! I had always wanted this playset!!!! I watched Zorro and the Mickey Mouse Club religiously!!! We had the Flintstones and Jellystone Park playsets, and I think the barnyard playset, but always wanted this one and the Fort Apache sets.

I didn't know Zorro was Disney, when I saw the film I wanted the villains to prevail.

I had this set as a kid. It's so weird seeing some of the terrain elements in particular again. I vividly remember them now having watched the video but had otherwise forgotten that I had ever even owned them. It's weird how the human mind works. The memory was still there but completely inaccessible without being toggled by visual stimulus. My mom threw all of my toy soldier sets, plastic models, GI Joes and Star Wars toys in the trash one weekend when I was gone around circa age 12. 😢

That’s awesome! Boy, those were the great days!

I had a variation of this playset. I don't remember the Japanese soldiers, but I do remember the pontoon bridge, landing craft, razor wire, 3-slit bunker, tank trap, bombed out building door, dingy boat, sand bagged machine gun nest, injured crawling soldier, and more. THANK YOU for restoring this happy memory, :) .

I have memories of the Sears Christmas shop back in the day. The garden department would be taken over by toys. Playsets of all kinds would have their contents mounted on a sheet of plywood and hung from the ceiling. Same for race car and train sets.

Cool set, you have some awesome stuff!!

You seem to have a lot of older things, what is the most valuable toy you have? Have you ever had them valued?

Yee ha!!!! Looks good!

There is a WWII film called battleground!!!!

Awesome, looks like one of your best sets.

Hi, l enjoy your channel and seeing toys that my brothers and myself had as kids and played with. I also have an Army play set that you might be interested in, is there some way to contact you with photos and other info?

I love those old Marx playsets! I remember lots of them from my childhood. JC Penney and Sears always had many of them in their Christmas catalogs. I had two of the "Fort Apache"s during my life, one with the old style cavalry, and one with the newer cavalry. I had a couple of the army sets from World War II, "Desert Patrol", and "History in the Pacific". The last one I had was "The Blue and the Gray", their Civil War set. They were so cool. I can't believe that you find those boxes, too! Love your channel!

So elaborate! If you ever decide to set it up and play with it, please make another video of it!

Beautiful condition and an awesome set, thank you for showing us.

Those palm trees and mountain pieces found their way into many play sets. Thank you for a look at a very desirable play set!

Holy-smoke, what a wonderful video. 😊
