I just love how the "real collectors" say that the INTELLIVISION AMICO is not an intellivision console....I think Tommy Tallirico and the Blue Sky Rangers would beg to differ. And as far as the original 125 go, whoever said that when the console isn't supported by the manufacturer anymore that anything there after doesn't count? What collecting bible is that written in? Oh yeah....it's not. The original 125 were released between 1979 and 1989.........yes that's true.....no one is disputing that. Spiker is one of the original releases, it is being re-issued by the original IP holder and guess what......the original release date is still 1989!! If you want to own the first issue for $2000, you go right ahead, more power to you, but don't tell other collectors that this re-issue doesn't count toward a full collection, because it does. There is nothing you can say or show from any "official" source that says it's not.....it's simply your opinion. And you know what they say about opinions. And by the way, if you took a poll, I would bet that there would be a lot more people who would say the Spiker re-issue counts towards completing a collection than not.
