This is basically a micro set, build into a cabinet. I see the set regularly for sale here. There is also a series with digital tuner. Never bothered to get it, because it doesn't take batteries. It looks nice as a small home audio set tho. The cabinet is what makes it rare I guess.

Edit:

an other collector from holland has found something similar some time ago.

That's fine. But take into consideration that this thing is extremely heavy! Maybe Hurb is prepared to sell his? Try to send him a pm first I guess. :)

you have the Mitsubishi Justcruisin? dying to know if it's a good box?
I know monolithic had one, he doesn't come around much tho.. I think he said it was pretty nice tho, no cheapo. I also saw one for sale on a Swedish! auction site but it wasn't working.

Going back to Top Rare 20 - one of my favourite one-piecers is
Diatone JR-711.

Amazing look and sound, excellent top machine from Mitsubishi.

Oh wow this is now on my wanted list I think, looks so nice !

How about the Toyota-branded GF-909 ?
And I know there is a "Mark" branded C100 that was for scandinavia I think ? saw a picture somewhere..

Peace

Speaking of flight-case units......How can we forget the Blaupunkt Micronic.....shown here with this tasty blonde, exhibiting quite a provocative pose.

You can occasionally find the components on Ebay Germany, so it's not really rare....But the flight-case is. I've seen it on Ebay only once, and I didn't buy it because the seller refused to answer my questions about its condition. Oh well. :-/

I never got the original speakers either. So I paired it with some cool-looking speakers from a Panasonic micro system....

That's a very interesting rarity IMO, I mean not the Japanese domestic Sharp GF-505 itself,
but this limited NASA serie.
Besides, I do like black 505, unfortunately AFAIK 9494s were only in Silver.
