FYI, linking directly to eBay images is not a good idea. The images will disappear in a few month's time.
The images posted were screenshots of images from an eBay listing, not the actual images themselves. Thank you for telling me, though

Keep us posed here when it comes; if you can, a picture of the tag and an isometric point-of-view would be great!

Thank you guys for the help! Let's keep it going.
I'll see what I can do.. I just hope it won't come smashed up like my low tone Klaxon siren, with a bit of luck I should be able to get both the "Starburst grille" version and the regular vertical slit version, other than the grille, both sirens are identical.

Whenever I'll get the time to, I'll take better pictures of my IMI as well. I just need to find a solution for the horizontal klaxon's damaged stator.

Also another to add to the list (though not as obscure as most of them):

Sirena:

Horizontal sirens:
  • Minicelere
  • Celere
  • Supercelere
  • Electra V12 Rosta-to
Vertical sirens:
  • Minicelerest
  • Celerest
  • Supercelerest
  • Micro W10
There's also the Celerson but I'm not sure if it should be included since it somewhat is between the "Mini siren" and full size siren territories. It looks like a larger Supercelerest but with 8 ports.

Cofrel:
  • S101 (rebadged Sirena Minicelere, 220V)
  • S102 (rebadged Sirena Celere, 220V)
  • SAP 404 (electronic sounder "signal police")
  • SEV 404 (electronic sounder, AFNOR NFS32001)
Legrand:
  • 415 39 (230V)
  • 415 32 (12V)
  • 415 33 (24V)
Cicca:
  • Hand-crank siren
This is just a few I've found trawling the local classifieds... The Sirenas are interesting because there's a bazillion of variants of those... From different voltages to case colors, there's a lot of variants and subvariants..

The Cofrel sirens are interesting, I've only seen their rebadges of the Sirena Minicelerest (S101) and Celerest (S102), I've yet to see a Supercelere rebadge or a different voltage version.

Might as well add the missing pictures I promised for the IMI and one that I got too..

Also, slight correction but it's not a "DDR siren", IMI actually was a Hungarian company.

For the Type 80, right now it's unfortunately bored (Klaxon unfortunately cut so many corners compared to the Type 77 and 72 that the T80 feels cheap as chips), the shaft was bent and trying to fix it I ruined the brushes, I'll make a separate post for it.

So far here's for the IMI, in no particular order

Another obscure siren arrived too, it's an Elektror S0, but the newer variant that was made by Funke-Huster (just before it was relabeled the FHF F0).

Now for the Klaxon Type 80, which I affectionously call the "Siraplastic" because it's... cheap and hollow feeling.

I finally got some more pictures of my SirEAne Jr for you to use, as the pictures added before won't load. However, mine doesn't have a tag on it or any holes of where one would be. If it was made by a different company who stole the design from EA, we will never know.

...Also, there is another company that isn't really that well known in the community who are still making vehicular sirens for fire trucks, who are actually based in Lansing! They're called "Eagle Sirens Inc.". Here's the wiki article about them: https://wiki.airraidsirens.net/Eagle_Sirens

120vac Archer Siren. These were sold by Radioshack as house alarms.

Ademco 65-12. I'm pretty sure this model was a car alarm.
