After recent controversies regarding the authenticity of cosmetics in Black Ops 6 and Warzone, Activision acknowledged these concerns and promised changes, with the first one being around the Carry Forward feature.
Now, following on this promise, Treyarch revealed that they have made changes to the Tedd operator, which is part of the Vault Edition bonuses for Black Ops 7. The studio posted the following video on X (formerly Twitter), where we can see the new version in action:

The post also indicates that they will be making some changes to the other Vault Edition operators, so we can expect more announcements soon.
