There's a stand hole cover, as expected.

Together with the previous release, the VF-31J Siegfried.

As the first release in the Macross Plus Mecha Collection series, the VF-171 Nightmare Plus was released alongside the VF-31 Siegfried. Much like the Yamato Mecha Collection, it's a compact kit in a small box — molded in a single color with a large number of seals included.

Just like the Mecha Collection VF-31J Siegfried, this is a small kit with impressive depth and sculpting, and it already looks pretty decent with just the seals applied. Add some panel lining or paint and it'd look even better. The price-to-content ratio is a bit on the steep side, but if you're a fan of small, detailed mecha kits like this and love Macross, it's definitely a fun build. :-)
