Let's all sit down now, bow our heads in silence and as a collective....pray for an Encore reissue.

Raiden is a Takara mould - so providing that:
a/ TakaraTOMY still have the mould
b/ TakaraTOMY believes that there would be sufficient demand
... then a reissue is possible.
We have seen reissues of other Japanese-exclusive G1 moulds before. But the one JP exclusive G1 reissue I really want is Lio Kaiser!!
Oh! I got excited by the thread topic but that price is out of my league.
The seller worries me.... really does. He's not one to deal with.
But that aside, if it was the right time of the year, I'd be all over this at $1000. It's allure for me is purely it's Headmaster connection. Still behind the G1 most us consider to be real G1.
I was thinking the same thing as STL. I wouldn't be handing a thousand dollars over to that seller. I _have_ Raiden, but even if I didn't I'd rather find a better seller overseas!
Eagerly waiting for Masterpiece Meister
Yeah at 5000+ feedbacks and exactly 99% positive, he screws over every 1 in 100 buyers (see I know math).
Be mighty frustrating to be that 1 in 100 on this auction.
The one thing I don't think eBay does well in feedback is it makes it hard to give negative feedback. Panbac's problem isn't (from my experience and others) that he doesn't deliver but the condition the item is in. Generally they do arrive but are in nowhere near the mint condition he claims they are in. Chrome, snapped off bits, rusting areas etc etc.
You want to leave him negative feedback but at the end of the day u did receive the item and it's what you were looking for though not in the condition you expected. Leavign a negative is a bit tight - especially when u have little space to type your complaint and face the prospect of retaliation.
I pretty much ignore him now unless I'm desperate for something.
