Archetypal/archetypical

Assuming there is a justifiable reason for using the term in the
first place, which form of this word do the denizens of AUE feel is
best: "archetypal", or "archetypical"?

(Collins allows both, listing them in that order; the MS
spellchecker doesn't like the "-typical" form.)

I'll go with the consensus, if there is one.
