Okay,...
The TEAC Model 3 and Model 5 were sister products in the same line, (late 70's).
The
Tascam M-30 and M-35 were sister products from the next generation of mixers that followed the Model 3 and 5, (early 80's).
The M-30 was a nex-gen improvement on the basic design of the Model 3.
The M-35 was a nex-gen improvement on the basic design of the Model 5.
The Model 3 is very different from the Model 5, as the M-30 is quite different from the M-35, respectively.
I'd typically be known for recommending the M-30 and M-35 over the TEAC Model 3 or Model 5,... unless they were absolutely giving away the 3 or 5.

I just hope it gets here... Anyway I am picking up a used Alesis ML9600 that I want to use for mixdowns. I also have an old Lexicon LXP 5 an old Alesis microverb, RNC 1773 compressor. A Palmer PDI-09 speaker sim that I like to use with a Weber MASS, for recording guitar, but sometimes mic'n the speaker is fun when its not 3:00am, these two work wonders getting a nice natural speaker tone at line level especially when its 3:00am, haha! I am getting excited putting this all together. Thank you guys for your suggestions, I hope you don't mind me hanging out here
