You are right, when I wrote that I wasn't aware of the new buff for the char. But if I'd need to chose between a T3 talisman and a new Eddie I think I'd keep getting Eddie. Pretty sure both will come up again in the future (as T3 Cyborg was lately) and if so, T3 should cost less than a special edition Eddie. Of course, this is only my opinion. I can be dead wrong.
