Just thought I'd start it to save the shout box.
The Triple down first drop is sick. Whats the grey box at the top supposed to be?

That first drop is going to be legendary. A Castle.... HAAHAHAHA thats nuts. Anything to that turnaround before the "castle"? Kind of Great Bearish... but not really. If this coaster was in N.A. it would be Christmas morning right now.

Will it have details inside of the castle? or will it just be a box and call it a castle?

No idea. Looking forward to seeing more detail. Right now it looks kind of cool but not all that thrilling to me. Hard to judge what it's gonna be like.

Evidently the castle is a "fly-by" So i'm guessing you whip through it, not gradually cruise up to the drop.

Well based on the decent from the lift, I'd estimate about 15-20mph at most through the castle.

It's awesome seeing some of these American manufacturers doing some major business overseas!

And I want a trimless B&M hyper with killer airtime and great pacing to the end.

You might want to be a bit more specific. Otherwise, the way things are going, you will get it.
In China.

looks awesome... seems to have a lot of speed at the end, not sure it that is just the way it looks in the simulation or if it will really end with all that speed

I just wish that they could've thrown a godd bunny hill in some areas for a little pop of air-time, some of the drawn out turns will be perfect for those types of hills.

Drawn out and graceful curves is GCI's style. Easier to maintain.  Looks fun, but no big drops, and it ends with a long, boring turn onto the brakes just like Prowler and far too many other coasters. Every coaster should hit the brakes with a slammin' airtime hill IMO.
