They are not real Telefunken tubes and never will be. What has gone on with the name is a company in Connecticut bought the rights to use the Telefunken name. It was mostly for use regarding their legendary microphones. This new USA based Telefunken company is making brand new tube microphones as well a doing restoration work on vintage Telefunken stuff. As for the tubes they are a total rip off. They are simply JJ gold pin tubes that are cryo treated and have a Telefunken label slapped on and the price more than doubled over what the same JJ version costs.

Friend, I would not hurt thee for the world...but thou art standing where I am about to shoot.
It's close, but not Thanksgiving yet.
It sucks to get old. It really sucks to get old and bitter.
The VF-14 tube we got from the Connecticut outfit for U47 mic in the studio is superb. Engineers I know whose work I admire, and who have years with the classic Neumann mics, say their mics are excellent. Their products seem to be very high quality faithful recreations of the originals. Having worked in a studio where our sole U47 was out of commission for over a year, thanks to the unavailability of the tube, I'm very thankful they are doing what they do.

Years ago I sold 5 VF-14 tubes (the tube in a U47 microphone) to that guy.

We had a pair of U47 at the studio along with a pair of church mics plus C12s U67s sony c500As sony c37As and the list went on from there. It was amazing and made me look good as a recording engineer. The vintage neve console didn't hurt. The fairchild 670, the pair of lA2As and the Pultec EQs. I sure miss that place!
I got the full market price at the time for those tubes.
