Welome ddj! Yes Andrewdsz is correct. However even though I don't own a HK SOC,I heard that the quality is equal to or lower than their Japanese counterparts. Also if you buy a HK SOC,you can get a gift;but that depends on the packaging, your luck,etc. So if you want quality get the Japanese versions,but if you want the exclusive gift,get HK SOCs that have them,or if you're going cheap,get the HK SOCs.(i MIGHT BE WRONG ABOUT QUALITY DIFFRENCES,THOUGH.)

How will you know if your SOC is from Japan or HK?? Is there any mark that says so in the box or the toy itself?

The SOC from Japan has a bear sticker or Dynamic sticker on the box and the HK version doesn't.

I have SOC's from both Hong Kong and Japan and can say that the quality is 100% the same. There all made from the same factory so there isn't any difference. The bear oy Dynamic sticker is just put on for Japanese customs and licenceing laws. Besides Bandai sells SOC's all over in Asia and wouldn't allow sub-standard stuff sold outside of Japan, it would just be bad for business. Plus the increase in price from a Hong Kong and Japan release is due to HK ones are sold almost straight from the factory while Japanese ones have to be exported to Japan and then exported again to whatever country.
