I don't think it is included in the isntrument list, because it is not an "instrument" one can normally write for. Or more particular, there is no way for a musician to play music that is written for music box. If you want to use the *sound* of a music box in the computer-generated playback, you can select it for any staff you want using the Mixer (in Display menu). You can also set the name of any staff to "Music Box" if you like using Staff Properties (in right click menu).

That helped a lot!
Sorry for being late, but now there is actually a music box in the mixer in >view. It should be between the glockenspiel and the vibraphone. I hope this helps!

Ciao Dust Bunny, I am afraid that three years ago were talking about an earlier version ;-)

Still, even back then, MuseScore was using a GM soundfont, which should have has about the same instrumentat the same spot.
Mark, this is very good, that the music box is in mixer at least. If you transcribe some song for music box to be punched into paper tape, it is very helpful to hear the specific short and ringy tone, so that you can assess if filling motive by more ornamental tones is needed or not.
