GTA 6: Macca the Gator from the $400 collector’s box now as a 3D print

• The figure comes from the GTA 6 collector’s box, which is reported to cost $400 and does not include a copy of the game.
• According to @Top5Gamingx, the recreation is meant to be 3D printed at home, and the model was shared via Cults3D.

What happened

Kotaku wrote on 28 September 2026 about a fan project tied to GTA 6: a 3D-printable recreation of the gator statue from the collector’s box. In the embedded post from @Top5Gamingx, the figure is explicitly called “Macca the Gator” and linked to the $400 box. The post also says fans can 3D print the model themselves, which is the core of Kotaku’s article.

According to Kotaku, the fan version was uploaded to Cults3D on 24 September 2026 by user Jouhna117. The publication notes a listing price of under $2 for the model. That makes the fan recreation stand out as a low-cost alternative to a collectible that is being described in the coverage as expensive.

The trigger for all this is Rockstar Games’ GTA 6 collector’s box, which the reporting says costs $400 and does not include a copy of the game. Kotaku places the fan recreation in that context and points to criticism over the price and contents of the box. In the available sources, the box is also described as a merch bundle themed around a fictional TV show from GTA 6, including a cartoon-style gator statue.

The available information also says the box does not include a disc of GTA 6. Based on the provided sources, that remains a reported detail from Kotaku rather than something directly confirmed by Rockstar in the materials supplied here. What is clear is that @Top5Gamingx’s post directly connects the gator figure to the $400 collector’s box and to a fan-made 3D-print version.

Background

The collector’s box is described in the available reporting as a GTA 6 merch package that includes a cartoon-style gator statue. In @Top5Gamingx’s post, that figure is called “Macca the Gator.” The post also says it is an item from a $400 collector’s box and that fans have made a 3D-printable version of it.

The sources cite a $400 price for the box and say the game itself is not included. In the supplied context, a price of $399.99 is also mentioned in a related article about the same collector’s box. The different reports line up in substance, although the exact official confirmation from Rockstar is limited in the materials provided. The available context also says the cheapest way to get both the box and the game would be $479.98 before tax and shipping, which helps explain the criticism over the price.

Kotaku’s reporting places the fan recreation within a broader discussion about the box’s contents and how Rockstar is presenting GTA 6 merchandise. The available sources also mention extras inspired by Vice City, such as a statue, sunglasses, and a crossbody bag. Those details come from surrounding coverage of the same news and reinforce the idea that the collector’s box is being positioned primarily as a merch package.

Based on the information provided, it is not independently confirmed whether Rockstar Games fully specified the exact contents and price in a primary announcement. It is also unclear whether the fan-made Cults3D listing is still available and under what terms. The main takeaway is that, within days of the reporting about the pricey collector’s box, a fan put a 3D-printable version of Macca the Gator online, and Kotaku picked up the story.
