    Was just wondering which of the many colour variations of the ps2 was regarded as the rarest and what quantities there were released in. If anyone has a link to images of the units it would be much appreciated.

    just found this http://www.gamespaper.com/news/PS2passes20millionsalesw.shtml
    can anyone confirm the numbers stated here?
    cheers.

    Apologies in advance, but this is going to be a long post. I have developed a list over time of all of the different colour PlayStations (and their model numbers) which I'll post below in abridged form.

    A couple of things to note:

    1. this is not the complete list of all PlayStations released, it is a list of the different colors and designs which I've used to keep tabs on PlayStations I still need to get. My biggest collection conflict is that I've excluded the PlayStation GT4 pack as, although it has a different model number, it's the exact same machine as the SCPH-50000CW model, and I didn't want two of them.

    2. This list does not include most development hardware (Only the debugging stations which different designs or colors)

    3. I've read that there are a couple of PlayStation limited editions that aren't on the list (Team Jordan model, PSP Gran Turismo, Men-in-Black model). I haven't seen any evidence to suggest that these were any more than one-off models, but if you find some, let me know).

    4. The model numbers correspond to the units that I've chosen to collect. Some of them are of course available in a number of regions with different model numbers.

    Enjoy....

    wow what a comprehensive and informative list, with model numbers to boot, many thanks for the info. do you happen to know the going rate for a red automotive collection ps2. I`d imagine they crop up now and again if there was 666.
    cheers.

    Red was the second-hardest one for me to find, and cost around $400 USD. I'm still looking for the Snow White one (the only PlayStation on the above list that I don't have...), so if you find one, let me know!

    "Pink PlayStation2 UK Limited Edition
    PlayStation2 Slimline Pink (SCPH-77004PK)"

    fyi - the Pink PS2 is also currently widely available in New Zealand and Australia.
    Can't confirm its exactly the same model number as the UK one listed but suspect it is.

    Yeah I know (I'm actually from Adelaide). It was released in the UK first, and I wasn't sure it would make it to Australia, so bought it from there. There's also a "baseline" pink slimline model available in Japan (no singstar or extra controllers).
