The latest issue of Hyper Hobby shows an up close look at the upcoming Macross 1/60 scale VF-1J Hikaru Custom Weathering Special by Yamato. Shown in these new images is a comparison between the standard VF-1J Hikaru Custom, and the weathered version.
The weathering applied to this toy brings out the detail, such as the intricate panel lines. This results in a VF-1J that looks like it’s spent time fighting the Zentraedi.

I prefer the clean version because of the bright white, however this release does look better in these images than the initial ones we had a while back.
The only Hikaru I have is the old VF-1S from Bandai sans all accessories and stickers. I still haven't made up my mind what 1/48 Hikaru I want. If the price is right I might buy this one.
Still want a Miriya too but that's much further down the road.

I'm gonna stick to 1/48's as much as possible since I love the size.
I'd go on to say that it's the ultimate VF-1 toy, but since the new 1/60 has some features that are better, it's a very tough call.
