What was reported
GamesRadar compared the spoon in the GTA 6 Goodtime State – Vice City Collection with a promotional spoon associated with The Ballad of Gay Tony. Rockstar's store lists the GTA 6 collection as merchandise and says the game is sold separately.
A date to treat cautiously
GamesRadar dates the older promotional spoon to 2008. Take-Two says The Ballad of Gay Tony was released in October 2009, but that release date alone does not establish when the promotional spoon was produced. We have not independently verified the item's production date, material or resale value.
