Hot wheels collectors help me out...

So ive been collecting camaro hot wheels for sometime now and recently started to get a little more serious. I recently bought one on ebay (it hasnt got here yet) but I was wondering if any of you guys could help me or know more about the one I got. So the one I bought was the one I believe to be the limited edition one they gave out at SEMA back in 2012/13. But after seeing a couple of pictures Im kinda wondering about it. A little background first, back at the 2012/13 SEMA autoshow in vegas when chevy showed off the hot wheels edition camaro they also sold the hot wheels toy version only at the show. There was only 200 produced. It was the blue chrome paint and a black stripe and came in a unique plastic case. So whats the cause of my "worry"? Well, the one I bought off ebay says on the case "2013 hot wheels chevy camaro" while another picture from a website of someone else showing it off, showing the same thing, the case reads "2013 hot wheels chevy camaro SPECIAL EDITION" so the one I bought leaves out special edition... The second thing that caught my eye was the one I bought says "HW 2013" on the back license plate. The one on the website I found says "SEMA 12" on it.

So does anyone have one from the sema show? anyone know why the same car says different things? Did I get the wrong one or fake one or something? lol. They shouldn't have made two versions, they didnt make two versions....since they only made 200 world wide.

I know this is probably silly but hey, Im collecting this stuff and I spent like 65 bucks on it which honestly was a good deal, but still, Id like to know I got the right one. Thanks guys any help is appreciated! Ill include pictures to show what Im talking about.

The ones from the Sema show have the SEMA 12 plate on the back.

The ones with the HW 2013 are from the 2013 Canadian International Auto Show.
