Sinclair Spectrum Vega Plus: Indiegogo Calls Debt Collectors Over Troubled Crowdfunding Campaign

Crowdfunding platform Indiegogo said it on Wednesday it is bringing in a team of debt collectors to reimburse the 4,000-plus backers of a fundraising campaign that promised to create and release a retro gaming console called the Sinclair ZX Spectrum Vega Plus.
The project was first launched in March last year by U.K.-based Retro Computers Ltd (RCL) but since then has faced multiple production delays and, most recently, legal disputes. Asking for up to $100 from supporters, the concepts showed a handheld device that would come packaged with 1,000 licensed games. It played on nostalgia by taking inspiration from the 1980s Spectrum products.
