This kit is the RE/100 Vigna-Ghina [Extra Finish], released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's based on the standard release RE/100 Vigna-Ghinawith an Extra Finish coating applied — no additional parts included, just a straight coating version.

So the basic configuration and features are identical to the original kit, and thanks to its compact size, it still delivers decent articulation and joint strength. For this review, you really just need to take a good look at the coating effect — and as you can see, the subtle sheen characteristic of Extra Finish has come out beautifully. Personally, I've always felt that silver is the most effective color for Extra Finish, as it looks closest to an actual semi-gloss paint job.

On a side note, way back in the day (around the early '90s -_-) I used to do full paint jobs only on car kits, and for Gundam I'd just do the occasional partial paint at most. The very first kit I ever attempted a full paint job on was the old 1/100 Vigna-Ghina. Silver being what it is, the paint effect came out really nicely and I was super happy with it — but then my little nephew went and smashed it to pieces, a painful memory that still stings... (the kind of thing a lot of you have probably been through too.. T_T)

Anyway, among plated kits this one delivers top-tier quality and satisfaction, and if you're a fan of the F91 series in particular, it's definitely worth picking up. :-)
