Finding a complete Fortress Maximus is difficult because of a couple of reasons.  The first is the price the original Fortress Maximus commanded.  At $89.95 this toy was well out of reach of your average consumer for the time.  Hell it would be out of reach for todays average shopper.  Another reason it's so hard to find a complete Fortress Maximus is that there are so many parts!  Keeping track over the years of all of those parts and pieces is tough so for a complete set to have survived this long would take effort on the part of the owner.
