Rockstar is charging $399.99 for the Grand Theft Auto VI: The Goodtime State – Vice City Collection, and the game is not in the box. The official product page states that Grand Theft Auto VI is sold separately.

The limited collection is built around Macca the Gator, a fictional Leonida TV character introduced through GTA 6 marketing. Preorders are open while supplies last, with the box arriving on November 19, the same day as the game.

What is inside the $400 box?

Rockstar lists 11 items:

  • A six-inch Macca the Gator figure with a storage compartment in its base
  • Oakley Frogskins sunglasses with Prizm Sapphire lenses
  • A Leonida Keys crossbody bag
  • A New Era 9FORTY snapback hat
  • A Macca the Gator magnetic mirror
  • A Chunkee the Manatee shot glass
  • A decorative Vice City swizzle spoon
  • A Vice City razor-blade keychain
  • Nine Leonida Keys enamel pins in a metal tin
  • Nine Leonida Keys stickers in a stash bag
  • A double-sided souvenir poster with a map of Leonida
The open GTA VI Goodtime State Vice City Collection box displays its three drawers and included merchandise.

The Oakley sunglasses and New Era hat are the two licensed brand items. The rest is Rockstar merchandise tied to Vice City and the wider state of Leonida.

Why is GTA 6 sold separately?

Rockstar is selling this as a merchandise collection, not as a game edition. The official name says “Collector’s Box,” and the store adds a separate warning that the game is not included.

A standard copy of GTA 6 costs $79.99 through Rockstar’s store. Buying the game and this box brings the starting total to $479.98 before tax and shipping. The collection is not eligible for free shipping.

The matching November 19 date may make the box look like a premium game bundle at first glance. It is not. Buyers still need a separate PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S copy to play.

When does the collection ship?

Rockstar says the Goodtime State – Vice City Collection will be available to ship from November 19, 2026. It is a limited-edition product, and the company is taking preorders while supplies last.

The store labels it as an adult collectible for ages 18 and older. The box measures 19 by 13.5 by 12.5 inches, so this is a large display set rather than a small bonus package.

Is the collection worth $400?

There is no single retail price for the 11 items outside this set, so the official page does not provide a clean value comparison. Buyers are paying for one coordinated GTA 6 collection, two name-brand accessories, and a large presentation box.

Anyone expecting a deluxe copy of the game should skip it. The $399.99 price covers merchandise only, and GTA 6 still has to be purchased separately.
