    Cloneman-time !

    picked up this one local today. nice condition, great colour, nice design, too. it's an absolute no-name Cloneman. i do have some quite similar branded "Fellow - Young Walky" and i know there's some "Ariston" out there, but on this one: no hint at all besides "made in Japan", still nice:

    the "Perfection One" (i love that name) looks like a proper Cloneman, the "Binatone" and the "MBO" not, even that they're nice units, too.

    yep, JAKI is fake-Lego (matches 100%)

    @Coley1969: nice one but sorry, doesn‘t qualify - this one is based on the Unisef-type, wich is qualitywise quite equal, but door opens the other side


    EDIT: had another look, i was wrong, might be a Cloneman, please post some pic of the visible movement !

    Unfortunately the cassette mechanism has stopped functioning, radio is ok , new belts needed,it wasn’t working when I got it so I opened it up and tried the boiling belts technique, it worked for a little while which was good so I know only needs new belts.
