I'm thinking along the lines of the VM Cabronita Bigsby Tele & '51. What would be some others?
What are the most unique Squier guitars, past and present?

Cowabunga! I've never seen that before and, man-o-man, is that thing is expensive. I don't think I've ever seen a used Squier command such prices.
You asked for a unique one.
I think thats the top.
The Holoflake Showmaster might be the most unique finish, but it's just a superstrat like a Kramer, Pacifica, Jem, etc etc. Same for the Stagemasters. The Supersonic is a left-handed Jagmaster that got left on the stove top. The M series singlecut is a Les Paul, and the Starcaster and Coronado's Gibson influence is also obvious. Though one of those also got a bit melty.
The 51 is an old P-Bass with the wrong neck, the Cabronita is just a Tele with weird pickups. The Venus is a ripoff of an older guitar from Mercury. The Rascal bass is a 4 string VI, not super unique.
For any model it's easy to find a way to dismiss it's uniqueness.
I'm tempted to give this one to the SuperSonic. It's design history is obvious, but it is unique, it's not a direct copy of any other guitar (to my knowledge) and as far as I'm aware, Fender has never made a version of it. I'm pretty sure that makes it the most unique guitar Squier has made to date. Love to be corrected though!
The Jarman is also an option, it's a StangJag. Not sure that exists as a serial production guitar anywhere outside of Squier?

Try these for unique , rare and expensive:
Cribs Signature
And of course the Hello Kitty, but we all know about those, right?

That's like a strange varient of the Guild --> DeArmond --> Squier line.

It doesn't match anything else in any of those lines but actually does have a proper serial number like the other MIK guitars of the time. I'm kind of assuming it was a prototype for the M80 because that's what it looks the most like to me.
I'm not sure why they'd make a prototype in a different shape. It seems like the object of those lines was to inexpensively replicate Guild models including their body shape. Fender first sold those as DeArmond branded guitars, then switched to the Squier brand.
You're got a cool guitar, whatever it is.

X-155 with its trapeze is rather unique.
