You think you know a lot about the Gran Turismo series? This jaw-dropping collection of GT games and memorabilia collected by GTPlanet’s own edward_v12 will educate even the most hard-core fans.
Stuffed with obscure demos and limited-production games such as the exceedingly rare Gran Turismo Concept 2002 Tokyo-Seoul and the never-officially-published Gran Turismo 2000, his collection reads as perhaps one of the most detailed and comprehensive lists of GT titles ever assembled:

He’s even tracked down copies of the first game Kazunori Yamauchi was involved with at Sony Imagesoft: Karuraou (also known as Skyblazer), released in the early 90’s for the SNES.

That is HUUUUUUUUUUGE
Next up on Hoarders Buried Alive. LOL
Collection is growing slowly within budget.
thank you, guys.
Wow! And to think I thought having the European copy of GT4 Prologue was cool, that collection is just epic!
I also do DCar championchip
Impressive job! It is truly outstanding to see such a collection of Gran Turismo Games and memorabilia. Now that’s a fan!
NOO WAY,
i own a copy of the
Gran Turismo Concept 2002 Tokyo-Seoul (metal box and all)
i didn’t know it was that rare!!!!!!!!!
Wow and here I’am thinking I have the complete GT collection lol, I even still have the old ps1 demo disc with GT1 on it.
Wow, this is really impressive.
@ESCUDO Grind dream car championship
I mean, what race?
Just a question: What do You all do to make money in GT5!?
And to think that list represents only a ‘modest’ portion of his entire collection to date…
Jaw to the floor.
Does he have the 350Z GT4?
“Doc, it started with a PAL GT1.”
Lets see. Do I wanna collect something I’m passionate about, or do I wanna get laid?
Oh. WHAT? I can do both?
(love all the “no life/no pussy” comments)IDIOTS
IIRC he is on ASSEmbler. It would only figure he’s a gtplanet user.
That guy has way too much money or contacts to get official unreleased versions and concepts!!
Im calling fake.
All fake.
Elaborate, but definitely fake.
PD should give him a reward. Maybe a GT by Citroen? Or let him design the free roam mode
Go Edward!!! Your GT Collection really sparkles.
I wonder if he is willing to sell his collection XD I would surely buy all of it XD
Damn that collection will be worth a bit aye!
Are these pictures old or something? Cause I miss GT PSP and GT5.
Really impressive, I already thought I was crazy with having just a EU/Pal copy of all the Assassins Creed and Fable games and nearly all GTA games :P
Hehe, but I have something he doesn’t have XD: A limited edition poster which I got after lining up for 5 hours at the launch party here in Taiwan (On Novenber 23rd)Only the first 150 people had this :)
Still, breathtaking collection! :) You’d have to live in Japan to be able to build such an enormous collection XD And why on earth did he buy the Chinese version of each GT? I thought he was Japanese…
I WANT THAT COFEE MUG!!!
PD, you officially have a biggest fan… Or and extreme stalker/thief :p
Wow. That sir is a very impressive collection
My envy knows no bounds.
i dont understand why the AUTOART Vipers are in the “Gran Turismo” collection? They are proper real life racing cars, not made for GT cars. GT is fortunate enough to have been made in order to be able to include those cars… :p
How does he find the time to play them all.
OMG!!!! This is so awesome!! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE??
Damn, All I need is GT1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and whatever I can buy. It’s cool but would not go out of my way. Just hope he saved enough to eat. :)
The only game I would like out of these pics is Gran Turismo 2000. I would love to have that game:(
i think i had something he didnt, the pizza hut or dominos original gt/metal gear solid demo.
WOW!!! Amazing collections :) i also have that 1:18 Norev GT by Citroen, so cool! :)
Dang, he’s got games even Kaz probably doesn’t have. XD
Now I know where the logo for the Lupo race comes form…
That’s a crazy collection of GT stuff, hat’s off to the chap………….. But has he got every skyline and rx7 in gt5, now there’s a challenge! Haha.
PSST THATS NOTHING COMPARED TO MY 2 GT GAME COLLECTION.. I GOT GT4 JUST 400 SOMTHIN DAYS AFTER IT CAME OUT & GT5 ON DAY 3 i know i have the best GT collection ever.. (sarcasm) lol
Thats not sarcasm. Thats severe retardation.
Jealous, really, really, jealous!
LOL guys stop saying “he forgot this version” he has more than pretty much everyone, just because he missed one or 2 that does not means that he didn’t do a nice work getting them, he has some versions i had no idea existed.
im proud of my own collection GT1 GT2 GT3 GT4 GT5 xD!
maybe we can help him or start some sort of community gt museum
Just noticed he’s missing one of the most important Polyphony Digital related items, an R35 GT-R!
I just died a little inside when I saw this…top notch collection Edward!
We all waste money on things we don’t need. Thanks for this shining monument to that fact. I’m torn between thinking it’s cool and thinking it’s ridiculous.
Me too. And I though this world was weird enough…
I people say that I´m too much addicted in GT,lol….
Still, It´s an awesome collection I wish I could have one like him…
Wow I have searched for the diecast cars before but little did I know so many existed. I love 1/18 scale but I have dabbled in smaller scales. That collection is awesome.
I bled a little in my mouth from praising his collection.
Wow, and I used to think having all 5 games was a collection…
Wow, Kaz and his staff really owes something to this guy. They should invite him to PD headquaters for a weekend or present him a ticket for LeMans/24H Nürburgring or a F1 race (or NASCAR if hes from US)!
my jaws just got divorced!
wow, he has more GT games than I have games!
Definitely Kaz’s biggest fan. It’s amazing he got all the rare and hard to find items. I am sure he wants a Nike 2022 die-cast model so bad.
Is this the premium or standard collection? I have an official GT jacket and GT tee which aren’t shown in here! :D
Very cool :) Shame that he didn’t get his hands on the GT5 Time Trial demo, though.
I joined GTPlanet because of Edwardv12’s collection!
I saw Edwardv12’s collection a couple of years ago. I saw it and i was mesmorised on how many GT titles i didnt know of. Other collectors like GTPlanets own Alexbrazil and ortis both have amazing GT collections which have it all but Edwardv12’s just has those super rares which make it i think im right in saying , the worlds biggest GT collection as far as i can work out.
I would do terrible, terrible things to get my hands on a pair of those driving shoes. Awesome collection for sure and I agree that PD needs to get this guy into their HQ!
I wonder what his racing setup is like?
Me too man, I don’t even remember those Nikes.
I think I just fapped myself to death (O_o)
This collection is pure awesome!
cool
didnt no they made the cars
WOW,very impressive! Credit for leaving em all in the package. Thats self-controll!
Not impressed. He is missing the gt3 toys r us promo poster that I stole in 2001… amateur!
I would make some sort of joke about GT having as many unnecessary editions as there are unnecessary Skylines, but I would LOVE to have a collection like that.
Now that’s a mindblowing set of games and merchandise! True dedication to the series, no doubt about that!
It just went on…and on… and on…
JUST CAME!!!
Nice collection, but I think this guy needs a little help. There must be a good few thousand £’s spent on that lot.
All these items better be in some extra room or a closet otherwise there won’t be any women in there :/
Great collection though!
I wonder what that would have cost :o
Excellent work Edward! Never even knew there were GTHD Demo Discs, and those GT2 jackets are pimp!
Jerome
Very very cool!!~
I never knew they had a model car of the GT by Citroen..
Gotta..catch ’em all?
I’m also à huge Fan… But i only have, at first GT4 then i got Tokyo-Geneve, GT5P and GT5. I want GT3 so bad :( ..
woah, that gt academy sleeve is nice..
dare i ask how you could get hold of that?
beyond sky-high-price ebay?
He maybe competed and got it fair and square?
Two thumbs up!!
OMG! Seriously why in ALL different languages, they are all the same game.
GT4 EU versions features slightly different cars….
Great collection! I wish I had kept my old GT games…
Crazy, but to each his own, amazing collection. My collection consisted of GT2, GT3, GT4P, GT4 but had to sell them all along with my DF and DFP wheels just to get the money to buy PS3 and GT5P years ago!
I also forgot GT Concept 2002 Tokyo-Geneva
that s what i call FAN!!! Pure Motorsport and Videogame PASSION!
I ve got GT3 but what detail is rapresented on the cover of the game? i mean the red picture, i ve always try to discover it but never understand :)
RGT front light (upside down) xD
of how manufacturer is it? I fuond Lambroghini Murcielago RGT or Porsche RGT! Thanks!
Porsche :) i think its obvious :P
Until he meets something called “Vag*na” and all of this is irrelevant .. LOL
Oscar
I’m afraid he’d read the asterisk as a T! Anyway, even the most hardcore gamers have a “real” life with “real” people. Thinking otherwise is utterly ludicrous and prejudiced. Each of us is entitled to our own passions but they don’t necessarily make us freaks, retards or… virgins.
So, Oscar, are you assuming only men play GT5? Because I’d be the exception.
Get him a real platinum trophy for the achievment :P
I’d nearly suggest he gets some sort of reward for that level of dedication.
But the last thing he needs is even more Gran Turismo merchandise.
Man that’s hardcore.
The funny thing is that they all play the same.
That’s not the point of a collection…
I heard that pal and Ntsc were notably different in gt4
Amazing collection! Thanks for sharing it with us. I love the shoes!
Wow, that’s dedication right there!
Man, Omega Boost was a good game.
This deserves some higher res images, I think.
impressive, would live to try Gran Turismo Concept 2002 Tokyo-Seoul, etc
Hehe, oboy, what a collection :) I had the pal versions of GT, GT2, GT3, GT Concept, GT4 prologue, GT4, GT5 prologue and GT5, not near at all haha.
why?
Geez… This is crazy. But impressive as well.
That’s amazing! Where on earth did he get all those demo’s and unreleased games from! :o
I remember years before see several GT concepts copys together, GT games that i never heard before, i thought that are just hybrid copys, so i dont buy it, looks like they are legit.
I love GT..but..this seems a little derranged. I suppose..some folks do this with Justin Bieber or whatever celeb, atleast this is GT and car related.
wow. Didn’t even know that many things existed for GT. Strange, he can go at least 3 better than what he has already if he buys GT5, the collectors edition and the signature edition. Then there is also the other region specific special editions.
Wow….all the he even has more than like 3? copies of the same game….for each REGION. I mean really… I dont think I can explain it all, but one things for sure…this guy’s really awes- wait….where’s GT5?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Must be he took all those pics before GT5 came out, that’s my guess.
He’s got several GT5 copies, but it looks like he hasn’t updated his master list accordingly. I’ll try to fill in some of the blanks in my post above later.
Jordan, I can guarantee you there are a lot of items in his collections. I can say what you saw here is a modest list :)
It took him several days to document all items he’s got.
edward_v12, Congrats, my friend.
And still he’s missing stuff, like for instance the keychain i had (or have somewhere in a pile of stuff)
Its used and ugly now, but it was an official GT3 keychain i got with my GT3 preorder. Maybe he has it, but i don’t see it in the pictures.
Apart from that its an insane collection, amazing!
does he have the Gran Turismo 5 special editions?
I have a spiral bound “PRIMA Essential Track Guide” by Akitomo Sugawara for GT5 that I didn’t see in his collection. Hmm.. did I miss it?
OMG!!!
Mine is nearly as good, but I have one copy of each game in the language I can speak
So do I, one, in english :)
lol@shigllgetcha
He may have a bit of a problem, but nice collection.
This dude deserves to spend a week all expenses paid at PD headquarters!
This dude deserves to work at PD HQ with Kaz. :)
In the immortal words of cap’n jack sparrow: ” you need to get yourself a girlfriend mate”
He should be an advisor to PD, start sending him your ideas!
