Chap Mei P61 Black Widow?
It looks like we have a Black widow to look forward to. In this thread http://chapmeitoys.proboards62.com/inde ... 429&page=1
Look at the small pic on the bottom left of the box of the halftrack.
Admitedly its very small but it looks to have the same spring loaded missiles of the Chap Mei A-10...

It definately looks like it. Has the Black Window's fuselage shape.

What is cool is that this wave seems to have WWII vehicles as a focus. The halftrack looks cool for what it is but there's really no point (for us) with the 21st version a few bucks more.
The P-61 is cool just because it will likely be a while before you see it in true 1:18 - for some people it will be a nice hold-over, like the Target A-10, Hind, etc..
Ideally they will do more vehicles like the halftrack that are small enough to be to scale, but that have not been done before. Do a Scout Car, or a Kett.
I'm sure we could make those fit in. 
EDIT - Whoa - are those wooden rocket mounts in there for me to put on the side of my Hanomag?

definitely a p-61
If you scroll down further on the link provided above, it is definitely a p-61. They even painted the words "Black Widow" on the side of the fuselage for you skeptics
But yes, I'm sure it will be an underscale model

Well as said in the seperate thread i started the Chap mei M3 looks good & IF it`s underscale well there`s the basis for a WHITES armoured recce car 
So that One is a WIN WIN IMO
Also the Truck,is spot on for WWII & Modern. I forget the WWII designation but the cabin certainly looks akin to it as well one or tweo modern versions.
The helo may have some customizing value too. The boats may also too
