Rarest Amiga model?

What, in everyone's opinion, is the rarest model in the classic Amiga line? Also, which one is your personal favorite and why?
A1500?
A600?
A2500?
Any other model I may not know of?

I dunno, the A2200 is rare, as is the CDTV-II, the A3400, A3000+, AA3000, Nyx etc

I am not sure what would be rare or not. I was always fond of the A500 and my A3000 was a work horse. I knew a couple of people who had A600's. The first Amiga the community access TV station I worked in during high school was an A2500. Ahhh...the good old days.

Do you mean production models only or also prototypes? When it comes to production models it has to be the C= A4000T (couple of hundred IIRC) although the CDTV is also rare, ~20.000 produced if I am not mistaken.

I was really referring to production models but I've already learned of some, I guess, prototype models I wasn't aware of.

If it's production models, then yeah, the Commodore 4000T. Only a few thousand at best.

A600 definitely isn't rare... and as A1500 and A2500 are practically same as A2000, I wouldn't call them rare either
Is there much difference between Commodore and Amiga Technologies A4000T models? I've seen many AT A4000T:s, but I don't think I've seen Commodore's.
In think that rarest non-prototype Amigas are A3000T and from mass market productions the CDTV (but I'd call it "rare" with quotation marks
. A3500 is definitely one of the rarest.. I think it can be counted as non-prototype too

Production systems it think either the A4000T (200 or so made by C=), or the A2500UX (special Amix version before the A3000UX came out). Only very few are really labeled A2500UX.

At the World of Commodore 93 in New York, commodore had an A4000 mpeg 1 player in a plexiglass case playing mpeg 1 video off the hard drive. The video being demo'd was a Bon Jovi video from the early 90's. I asked an exec if the hardware was on the motherboard or a plug in card, he didn't know anything about it really. He said it was just an experimental unit.
Later this experiment became the CD32 FMV unit.
Also there was a company called IVS playing streaming video off the hard drive. They had recorded a few minutes of Back to the Future and it was played back in HAM MODE off of a modifed A500 or A2000.
