SOLD!!!Since getting Duo-R, this one hasn't been used and I am more of player than collector so this set and the nice looking box should go to someone who will appreciate it and be able to show it off.
I am the original owner, bought this new from Toys R Us when they were on sale when NEC dropped TG-16 and CD system in favor of Duo. The serial number on the box did not match so it was switched or mixed up somewhere before I got it.
Last year shortly before I got Duo-R I had to take apart the CD system for stuck laser. Cleaned the rail and put on fresh white lithium grease. I also drilled out the middle gear oh about 1/32" bigger so it'd be less likely to seize and jam or crack. Both drive and dock has
not been recapped! They still worked when I retired it and all you need is a working TG-16 unit.
PCE does not fit because of the Hucard hump on top is too tall but with adapter or mod (mod removing the top of the console shell, cut the side of EXT port to fit), one can use PCE and Coregrafx in it. Supergrafx too although you will probably need that hard to find extension dock.

More pictures:
whole box front, a few dings and corners. Mostly how I got it. Since it was kept in the attic for most of those 25+ years, it didn't get much light exposure and the color is pretty good.

one side of the box
other side of the box
set of styrofoam blocks for CD case plus wraps
another styrofoam block for top part of the box, holds CD box, power supply, and AV cable. There is cord melt in one of the compartment:
because I left the AV cable and never knew about the "cord melt" issue
styrofoam from inside CD box
instruction manual and brochure. I know the warranty registration is gone, they were mailed away. There may be other paperwork missing as well
CD case. both latches still on and intact
inside the case with CD dock
CD and dock serial number. It matches!
Need more? Ask for more picture please.
Not pictured but original AC adapter and AV cable are included. I am quite sure the AV cable are the same one that came included originally considering it was left in the box for the last 25 years!
I prefer to keep this as a set, but will consider separating the CD system and box if there's no interested party after a while. As it's huge and over 11 pounds without packing material or shipping box international shipping is not recommended. Shipping within USA can run from about $14 (inside Michigan) to $65 west coast. Alaska and Hawaii can expect very high shipping as well
If you are in Michigan I can meet you in some area (about 1 hour drive from Flint area) to save on shipping
I have no idea what to price this at so I'll take reasonable offer. Forum rule I think requires I put a price anyway so I will list this for 1 million dollars
