Cedar Point | Steel Vengeance | RMC I-Box (Mean Streak Conversion)

So, there is a third poster apparently? This is a screen shot from a YouTube vid uploaded today by Ohio valley coasters.
Looks like the Maverick character but then again that's not certain. There are differences in the hat and hair silhouette. The reward is $1000 for this character. How would this relate to $875 and it's meaning?
A guess: feels like these characters are all the RMC's being grouped from across Cedar Fair leading to a debut of RMC to CF "They're Coming" '1,000' doesn't make much sense yet though.

Fantastic photo update over at Pointbuzz:

I've only seen Walt's photos in addition to an article by the Sandusky Register (http://www.sanduskyregister.com/story/201707180023) and it seems as if the park requested that the photographers keep their cameras pointed at areas of high visibility. We're still in the dark regarding everything following the barrel roll next to the ride's entrance.

What if 1,000 is how long the ride is? It'd make for a short ride.

Oh, come on. Really?That third character looks like McCree from Overwatch so McCree from Overwatch theme confirmed?
Besides, a Team Fortress 2 theme would be better.

"WRMC Radio" - hah, clever.
Here's text from the Cedar Point Blog Post that accompanied the video:
THE 2018 SNEAK PEEK CONTEST
posted by Tony Clark on July 20, 2017
Please read every detail in this very special blog entry. Your chance of winning depends on it!
Back in the day, AM radio ruled the airwaves and programming ranged from simple talk shows to full-blown audio productions with music, storytelling and acting.
Old radio westerns were also popular. Tales of gun-slingin', romance and ridin' across the prairie were the subjects of these stories. And what an art form - imagine telling a story with absolutely no visuals; just sound.
Well imagine our surprise when we found an old AM radio western titled, "What's Mine is Mine!!!" in our park archives. (Why we have this, I don't know - but we did have our own radio station here at one time. Did you know that?)
Anyway, in it, there was this peculiar news break that we thought you should hear. It involves something big. And a way for you to see it first.
I'll be the first to tell you, even though this is old, you should still give it a go.

Announcement will not be until at least September.

According to the official rules of the contest, the winners will receive access to view the ride animation before the "announcement". Entrants must be in by end of July, and winners will be notified no later than August 4th. I'm thinking late August, early September announcement.

WRMC, I love it! 
I'm definitely entering and I'm definitely hoping to do this, just gotta think of something sarcastic and funny enough for Tony Clark standards. Not a big fan of all the hype for it but it will at least be the best coaster in Ohio, so I'll at least go into it with that expectation. But with all the buzz now before they even spent a penny on marketing I can only imagine how badly it'll blow up now...
Fun fact: At Mystic Timbers Media Day I jokingly asked Tony if Mean Streak would have a shed and he just said, "Mean Streak's gone, I don't know what you're talking about."
