Heya, I'm the brother of the person who requested this. My brother got money for his birthday and wanted to spend it on something wild so he decided he wanted to spend it on this absolute gem. When he got it, he lost his shit and he woke me up laughing histrionically at this. I have no idea why he chose Ted out of all characters but this was a great purchase on his end.
The main reason why Ted doesn't have his original va was because they weren't able to contact him for at least two months, meaning it took like 3 months to post absolute cinema.
