DotM Human Alliance Soundwave. How to spot the KO and the originals on Ebay?

I want a HA Soundwave for my Soundwave collection. Unfortunately, I heards there's KO of it out there. So how to but a legit one without being screwed? Most of them come from Chinese sellers and it's not rare at all so it's possible to have some for around 55-70$ shipped.
So far, I've seen two types of boxes. One with Chinese on it and the other in English only.

Should I be wary of the box with Chinese on it? Anyone have it and can confirm it's okay?

Thanks in advance.

Skip ebay entirely and buy from a reputable store like a site sponsor.

The Official versions have chinese on the box, and a Tomy logo in the corner.

TakaraTomy uses US packaging, one language, with stickers in Japanese added. For the Asia region, Hasbro uses different boxes with Chinese in addition to English.
