I can't tell if you got the regular or metallic version from the picture but the box definitely says metallic version. The Hong Kong chrome version should say "Plated Version" on the sticker.

Baronm i can tell you based on your picture and that link to the angolz. u definately got the wrong one.
There are 3 versions. reg, chrome, and metallic chrome version.
The link for angolz at $195 should be the metallic chrome -the very shinny one
your is maybe the chrome version. which is $135 (i think at angolz)
hope this help.
by the way Bigbadtoystore still has it on pre-order as I cancelled mine already.

I think what's happening is a mix up in the translations of the different versions. First there's the regular version, second the "Limited Metallic" version, and third the "Hong Kong Chrome Plated" version.

@ Baron: What you got there is the Limited Metallic version basing on the pearly white finish of Danguard's deltoids (regular's flat white) and the sticker on the box. A Hongkong Limited plated (chromed) version's torso should look like this (sorry if the color of the image is a lil dark): and a sticker on the box is like this: *Hope this helps

Cool! Thanks for the info and the photos! So am I correct in thinking they sent me the wrong one? The description DOES say "chrome" in their listing... or did I misunderstand and order the wrong one?

I don't think there's any chrome on the "Limited Metallic Version"...

I noticed that the Chrome Version is 2.00kg and the regular Version is 2.40kg. Are there any difference between the two version besides the paint? Because it's affecting the shipping cost. I'm planning to get the Regular version but the shipping is more expensive than the Chrome Version. Anyone?

It should be exactly the same, nothings missing or added, the metallic version came with a cd but that shouldn't effect weight at all. I'm guessing they just raised the shipping weight to make some extra $$$ since they dropped the price way down.

ok, I saw the samething with angolz and bigbadtoystore. They both have the photos showing its the HK plated (chromed) version. Does it mean that they are selling the chrome version?
Where can i get the Hongkong Limited plated (chromed) version?

Thanks guys.
I contacted Angolz about the shipping cost. They said they created a ticket # and the representatives will email me back.

If you paid $195, then you got the wrong one!

Yep, I paid the $195 & shipping and got the "Limited Metallic" edition.
Did anyone else order the "Limited Plated Chrome" version from Angolz.com and RECEIVE the "Limited Plated Chrome?"
Angolz has not replied to the e-mail I sent on Friday. I sent a reminder today.

I had an earlier posting on my experience with Angolz.com (see bottom of page 41!). I was initially spooked when the image on the box showed the original colours ... but then I noticed the "Plated" sticker and confirmed it was the Chrome version when I opened the box. I've found Angolz.com to be slow responding to emails, but they eventually do respond!

Like some other members have noted, they are slow to reply. But they will eventually reply. I think also, they're a bit faster replying when you've actually placed an order. I think questions about items not yet ordered sorta get shoved to the back burner so questions about shipping costs are probably not high priority and I wouldn't be surprised if they took a while to respond.
