Someone needs to count that and make sure there’s actually 20 bucks there. I’m not sure I trust this Mike S guy! I tried to count them but it’s giving me a headache.Here you go

A worn look would be totally out of place in the park and would really have me concerned with imagineering’s understanding of detail.

If it's supposed to be a Xandar outpost, I don't think that really fits the IP. It would fit Guardians in general, but the Xandar we saw in the movies was absolutely pristine and shining.
Although I guess it was destroyed in a later movie, so maybe it could fit.

Will this be a single launch like Tron and RNRC or will it have any extra launches inside the gravity building?
I remember @marni1971 saying single, but @Magic Feather's post linked to the rumour tracker says "launches"

They can easily have a fitting GotG storyline that doesn’t require faux weathering. Just because they can’t understand the profitability of one facet of the park (theme) does not mean they should disregard other facets. In Epcot, particularly the front, by its very premise, it doesn’t make sense to have weathered pavilions and would devalue the park aesthetically. That would be flat-out foolish.

Photos Reveal Rollercoaster Ride Vehicles for "Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind" - DSNY Newscast
For over two years on DSNY Newscast, I’ve been tracking the development of the “Guardians of the Galaxy” first of its kind storytelling rollercoaster coming to Epcot by 2021. And today, thanks to photos by Sjaak van Horne, who posted these photos on the ThemePark.nl forums, we have our first...

I am really looking forward to this ride,I just wish it was being put in Hollywood studios and not EpcotEDIT: Someone beat me to it.
Sjaak van Horne, a Dutch guy who visits the Vekoma test site on a regular basis, took the following 2 pics. When the employees noticed that someone was taking pics, they quickly covered the vehicles.

Agreed. The cars themselves are pretty attractive.
This would of been a great addition to HS!

So, based on the images, lap bars only? Hoping that's so... not only because it means that the height limit can (generally) be lower, but I just prefer a lap bar over OTSR...

Wow, they live up to the concept art. Good sign for the rest of the attraction.

Do we know the "thrill" level of this one? Can we compare it to anything? I'm guessing since there aren't any inversions and no head/shoulder restraints, that it shouldn't be on the level of Rockin' Roller Coaster but maybe on the level of Space Mountain, but with a backwards launch?

The look of a restraint really does not say anything about intensity. A new Vekoma family coaster and a new Vekoma thrill coaster would have the same restraint. The vest that actually touches the shoulders seen on rides like Space Mountain at Disneyland Paris are purely optional.
Visually perhaps but certainly not in intensity.

So more intense than SM?
To be honest it depends. Gs maybe but as an experience, doubtful.
More intense than Anaheim’s SM maybe
