Transparent Adjudicator's Statement
Summary of Claim
Dakota Snodgras claimed the record for the largest collection of Final Fantasy memorabilia, consisting of 12,024 physical unique items organized within a single room. The claim was supported by a complete itemized inventory and corresponding visual documentation of each item.
Evidence Submitted
Evidence included a full itemized catalog of 12,024 entries, high-resolution photographic documentation of each individual item, four wide-angle room photographs establishing spatial layout, and segmented video walkthroughs covering all areas of the collection. Two independent witness statements were submitted, confirming direct observation of the collection and the counting process. Additionally, a randomized selection of five items from the catalog was requested during recording and immediately located on video, reinforcing the integrity of the inventory.
Comparative and Cross-Archive Benchmark Review
A review of publicly available records across major global archives identified no existing certified record specific to a single-franchise memorabilia collection of this type or scale. While broader video game memorabilia collections have been documented, no verified benchmark exists for a dedicated Final Fantasy collection, establishing this as a first-known record within the category.
Verification Methodology
Atlas World Records conducted a structured evidentiary review using its internal verification protocols. The itemized inventory was cross-referenced against photographic and video evidence to confirm existence and count. Spatial consistency was established through wide-angle room imagery, while segmented video documentation provided detailed coverage of all collection areas. Independent witness statements were reviewed and validated, and randomized item selection testing was used to confirm the accuracy and accessibility of the cataloged inventory.
Adjudication Findings
The submitted evidence was found to be comprehensive, internally consistent, and sufficient to substantiate the claim. The presence of a complete catalog, supported by individual item photography and corroborated by video documentation, provided a high level of verification confidence. Witness testimony, combined with successful randomized item retrieval on video, further reinforced the accuracy and legitimacy of the total item count.
Conclusion
Based on the totality of evidence and verification procedures, Atlas World Records confirms that Dakota Snodgras has successfully achieved the world record for the Largest Collection of Final Fantasy Memorabilia, with a verified total of 12,024 items. The record is hereby certified as the inaugural benchmark for this category.
