My most recent one would probably be the 26" stereo AWA in a full sized console cabinet that I saw out on the curb side collection earlier this year. It would have to be the biggest console I've seen in ages and was probably their top of the range set at the time. It was probably one of the last sets manufactured in Australia.
My wagon was loaded with other stuff when I saw it and there was no way I could move it by myself. I drove past the next day on the way to pick someone up to help me move it, but the garbage trucks had already been through.
Before that there was a massive quantity of sets that were dumped in the yard behind my workshop. Someone had planned to send a load of sets overseas somewhere and was storing them in full sized shipping container. One day the container was repossessed and the lot were left in the yard. I was slowly picking through them taking a few sets here and there. One day the owners got sick of the mess and brought in an excavator to load them all into a truck. I hadn't made much of a dent in the pile by then. There were some older sets in the middle of the pile, but I didn't get to them in time. I simply didn't have the time or space to get through them all.
