New Dukes Stuff - 4/13/2026 - So Many Goodies From Cooter's Place - Flash, Ducks, Diecasts, Stickers

I've gotten so many great new items from Cooter's lately that I can fill a whole post with them. DukesCollector Cooter is along for the ride (in the General Lee) for this one. 

DukesCollector Cooter told me this is his favorite new item that Cooter's sells and I have to agree with him. 

Technically, this belongs in the Ducks of Hazzard category, but more on those soon. This is a 1/64 size rubber General Lee toy. I love it so much. Gone are the days when you could get a new Hot Wheel sized General Lee for a few bucks. This little rubber Gen'ral fills that void. 

Simplistic in it's design, this cars hits the right notes. The wheels and 01 look great. It doesn't have so much detail and there could be a few nickpicks, but overall this is a great little representation of our favorite car. 

It even has a squeaker on the bottom. The bottom has two websites, CootersPlace.com and aandapromotionsproducts.com. A&A Products did a great job creating this for Cooter's. I got a bunch of these and love each one. 

Ok, so I mentioned ducks earlier. If you haven't been to Cooter's lately, you might have thought I mistyped Dukes. Nope. Cooter's has gone full steam ahead into the little rubber ducky craze. You know, Jeep Wrangler owners put them on their dash. Well why is the Jeep Wrangler so iconic? The 2018 Jeep Wrangler Golden Eagle paid homage to Daisy Duke because we all know Daisy made the Jeep what it is today. So if you need some Dukes ducks, Cooter's is the place to go. Cooter's has introduced the world to the Ducks of Hazzard!

Let's start at the top. This is Cooter Davenduck (Cooter Duckenport?). Notice his iconic yellow hat is a duck. Alma and the crew went above and beyond designing these little beauties. Cooter is giving a thumbs up and holding a wrench. Like Cooter does. 

The backs have a Ducks of Hazzard logo as well as Cooter's website. 

Along side Cooter is Boss and Uncle Jesse. These are rather well done likenesses. 

Rosco is an actual duck. Flash is not. The reasons are unclear. The results are hilarious. 

The citizens of Hazzard aren't the only ones to get ducked. The General Lee and Rosco's Patrol Car come in duck form as well. 

Daisy, like Rosco, is a duck. There's also a duckified Dixie Jeep. There are a few new ones that I haven't gotten yet that are non-duck duck Daisy and Luke, who is also non-duck but a duck. Maybe we need an Alma duck as well. 

DukesCollector Cooter is fond of duck Cooter. So am I. What other ducks are we hoping Cooter's makes?

Next up is ol' velvet ears in plush form. The golden era Flash plush toys have entered into highly sought after and rare status so Cooter's has filled another void for Dukes fans. This cuddly little best friend of Rosco is perfect for collecting or playing. He/she (it's dealers choice) comes with a really cool doghouse/box. 

 

The box carries the same theme as Cooter's latest diecasts, which I will showoff later in the post. 

Cooter graces the bottom of the box. I am definitely a kid of all ages. 

Flash's big old droopy eyes are just begging for doggy num-nums. 

I love the Cooter's tag. Alma and the crew at Cooter's went into great detail to recreate the original toy while also putting their own spin on it. 

Speaking of the old toy, here are some comparison shots. The new Cooter's Flash is about the same size as the smaller golden era toy. There are four different golden era Flash toys. One sitting and one laying in both bigger and smaller sizes. 

My old dog, his name is Flash, I don't know why cause he ain't too fast. He runs two steps then he runs out of gas, in a one dog race, he'd come in last. Singing go Flash go, but he sleeps and yawns, singing go Flash go, but he just lays on the lawn. Scratching his fleas and wrinkling. 

Cooter's has given us a great line of plush toys that includes the General, Dixie, the tow truck, the caddy, and the patrol car. Flash fits in great with this collection. 

Now here's a really cool thing Cooter's came up with. This is a set of sticker sheets full of all kinds of Dukes goodness. There are five sheets total and each one has a number of different stickers. These are so neat. 

The General Lee theme sheet has images of the car, a heart 01, and a few other great designs. 

This one has a Hazzard County theme and features logos of the Boars Nest, the Bank of Hazzard, the Hazzard Garage and deep cuts like Ace's Used Cars, Rhuebottom's Store, WHOGG Radio and the Tisdale Cab Co., run by Emma herself. 

There's a Cooter's specific sheet that has several familiar images and logos from out favorite fictional auto repair garage. 

Hazzard County's finest get its own sheet with images and logos of Flash, a Rosco re-election poster, the police patch and a few others.

There's a Dixie specific sheet with Daisy's Jeep as well as a pink 01 and General Lee. 

The final sheet is all I Love Cooter, which, come on, we all love Cooter. This sheet is just perfect. 

DukesCollector Cooter had trouble picking a favorite, but in the end decided he loved I love Cooter the most. These stickers sheets are just amazing. I haven't put the stickers on anything yet, because I am a crazy collector and I want to keep the sheets intact, but I did get multiples of each so I really need to use them as intended. I could see these stickers going everywhere from inside my collection to the real world like water bottles, phone cases, laptops, mirrors, just everywhere. 

These are great inexpensive items that you can buy in store on online. Everyone should get some of these stickers. What other sticker sheet themes should Cooter's come up with?

The last few items I got from Cooter's recently are limited edition diecasts. You know I love my diecast General Lees. I kind of centered my whole life around them. When Cooter's releases new ones, I'm as happy as can be. 

First up is a Happy Birthday General Lee 1/25 scale black Charger. It comes in the excellently designed Cooter's box. 

 

The box borrows some similarities from the classic Ertl box, but is distinctively Cooter's. 

 

My favorite part of the box is the image on the back of the Gen'ral peeking out of Cooter's Garage. The General almost looks menacing like it's daring someone to challenge it to a race. Go ahead, try it. You won't win. 

Having a smaller HBGL is always a great idea. For those who don't know, Happy Birthday General Lee refers to the General Lee's origin story that was told in the final season premiere. The Dukes reminisce about how the General joined the family. A pair of bad guys wrecked a black Charger while evading the Capitol City police. The Dukes Boys bought the wreck and help Cooter transform it into the greatest car ever created. It's stuff of legend really. This limited edition diecast celebrates the history of our favorite car. 

 

Now this is a genius idea. You remember the Norev General Lee that came out in late 2024. It's a very nicely detailed 1/43 diecast that was released in Europe in a plain jane white box. Cooter's corrected the only thing wrong with the Norev General Lee, it's boring old box. This is the Cooter's Norev General Lee in the perfect Cooter's box. That's what Cooter's does, make good things better. Great job crew!!

I went into detail about the car in that previous post. It's a wonderful replica. If you didn't buy one yet, you need to skip the regular version and get the Cooter's release. It is just perfect. You have to get this car. 

Look at all those Cooter's Garages! On top is the Cooter's Norev, in the middle is the HBGL and on the bottom is the amazing Cooter's Exclusive Auto World 1/18 General Lee. 

DukesCollector Cooter sure is proud to be an action figure version of the Real Cooter who has given us so many great diecasts. 

Here's the front of these Cooter's Place exclusives along with Ducks of Hazzard Cooter and DukesCollector Cooter. 

Duck Cooter was quacking mad that he missed out in being in the above picture of the garage sides of the cars so I had to include this picture. Sorry duck Cooter. 

The final piece is another Cooter's exclusive General Lee diecast, this time in 1/64. These are also limited and sell out at each event I go to in Luray. The front features yet another cool design of the Hazzard Garage. 

The back features that awesome image of Cooter saying his famous line "Breaker one, breaker one, I might be crazy but I ain't dumb, any y'all Dukes out there on the Hazzard net, come back" That's fun to type. 

The garage is on the back of each diecast box, but this image of Cooter is on the bottom, tinted in orange. The crew does such an outstanding job at Cooter's. 

DukesCollector Cooter, who is kinda my sidekick here on the blog, now has his own sidekick in duck Cooter. They love all these Cooter pictures. So do I! 

What other items do you want to see Cooter's release? 

New Dukes Stuff - 4/6/2026 - Wrist Racer Prototype, Animation Cel, Mittens, Director's Chair Back, Bo Duke Belt Buckle

I've been hitting some home runs adding great pieces to the Dukes of Hazzard collection. Here's a new batch for Dukes goodness. 

First up is a really cool piece all ready for display. It's an animation cel from "The Dukes" cartoon that ran for two seasons during the Golden Era of the Dukes. This image features Bo and Luke, not Coy and Vance, who were on the first season. This is the most commonly used image from the cartoon.

What makes this special, though, is that it's an actual animation cel, not just artwork from the series. 

Looking at it from an angle shows that it has depth and is made up of several layers of art. 

I got it from a former TVGuide executive that said it was actually production used and then hung in the TVGuide offices. I have no way of verifying this information, but it sounds good to me. Unless anyone can disprove this claim, that's what I'm going with. Boss Hogg likes the story. 

The cel is professionally framed and the frame is high end. 

 

The frame work was done buy a Thousand Oaks, California based framer company that's still around today. They do professional high end jobs and seems like the kind of company TVGuide would use for their work. I don't have proof that this is the original artwork used in production, but I don't have proof that it's not. 

 

Speaking of used in production, this is a Resin Prototype created for the production of the Knickerbocker Police Cruiser Wrist Racer Stunt Car. It is amazing this thing still exists!

It's about twice the size of the actual toy and made of a solid hunk of resin. I would imagine it's hand molded, but can't be sure. 

The Rosco wrist racer isn't as prevalent as the General, but there is no mistaking this as wind up Hazzard Patrol car. 

 

A majority of it is painted gray, but the bottom is unpainted and shows the resin to be silly putty colored. There are no markings on the car. 

The car also came with a standard Rosco Wrist Racer and you can see how much bigger the mold is. The seller said the standard car and launcher are production samples. I can't find any differences between the sample and other Rosco wind-ups in my collection. 

Let's say this guy is three times bigger then the standard. How cool is it that I own this piece of the toy making process? I wonder if there is a resin General Lee mold out there somewhere. Hot pursuit to find it! I love it, I love it!!

Next is a new item from John Schneider's online store. It's his replica of his famous belt buckle. This one is a little lighter than an original, but the same size. The stones are actually stickers but it looks great. 

John's autograph is etched into the back. This is a very cool piece. 

Here's some rare commercially produced golden era Dukes items. These red mittens kept the young Dukes fan's hands warm during the winters of the early '80s. 

There are several different versions of Dukes gloves and mittens and they are all nearly impossible to track down. I have a brown pair with a similar image of the Gen'ral, but a very different design. 

Oddly enough, not long after I found the red mittens, a single red glove popped up on ebay and I grabbed it too. It has the same image as the mittens. 

The mittens look to be unused, but the glove may have seen a snowball fight or two. 

Maybe the wearer of this glove was in a heated snowball battle with a Knight Rider lover. Perhaps the youngin took of his left glove off to make snowballs faster while keeping the right one on to throw. After the victory was proclaimed and the Knight Rider loving snowball pugilist cowered in defeat, the triumphant Dukes fan forgot to grab the left glove and only this right one made it home. 

The images are nearly identical on the glove and mittens, but the mittens illustration is printed on where the glove has an embossed design. 

It's interesting that they are so similar but the glove is much more 3D in its appearance. 

Next up is a golden era Iron-On Transfer that doesn't appear to be licensed to me. It has the General jumping in front of a rebel flag and "Hazzard County USA" beside it. 

I have a hat with this image on it. Neither on the hat, nor on this package is there a mention of Warner Bros. Also not saying Dukes of Hazzard tells me it's a knock off item. I good one, but knock off all the same. 

Now here's a interesting addition. This is a director's chair back for a guest star that has a really cool name. 

Duke Robbins played the role of Zack in the Season 2 episode, Treasure of Hazzard. 

He had a very small role, but it was memorable. In the episode, Bo and Luke are helping history professor Laura find a civil war era payroll box. The search leads them to Hazzard Swamp and Zack's Landing, where Waylon tells us the last census shows alligators outnumber people a thousand to one. Zack has boats for hire and rents to the Dukes and Laura. He tells his pal Uncle Jesse "watch out for them gators Jesse, cause after the census, they're gonna be watching you." After all this alligator talk, Laura falls off the boat and Bo jumps in to fight a gator off. It's a great scene where John actually wrestled the beast. 

Zack has another quick scene later in the episode where bad guys steal a boat and shot at him. It's a small role but the close up of him during his line seems like he was featured more than a standard one line walk on role. Having his own director's chair also gives me the impression he was someone of importance. Maybe all the guest stars got a director's chair, but it doesn't seem likely. The internet doesn't help much as a search for him only brings up this one role. Maybe he was friends with Gy Waldron or Paul Picard or another producer or crew member. 

The chair back seems to be made of brown denim. It has held up remarkedly well for being over forty-five years old. 

Here's an image of Catherine in the same type of chair (with a dog). This is the only Dukes director's chair back I've ever seen. If it had to be from a two scene actor, it sure makes it cooler that his name is "Duke." 

The final piece in today's post is something I've been after for a long time. 

It's the super-duper rare variant pillow case! I didn't know this existed until one sold on ebay for a crazy amount of money a few years ago. It's the same color as the standard pillow case, but has a totally different image on it. 

The Duke cousins are featured on the top left above a unique logo with rebel flags. There aren't many colors used and the image is abstract. It works but the faces need more details for me. 

Rosco and Boss are in hot pursuit of the Gen'ral on the larger image of the pillow case. 

The standard pillow case is on top and the rarer one is below. The logos used are totally different and the art of Bo and Luke is more defined on the standard. The rarer one could be a Canadian variant but it has no foreign markings. I've never seen a packaged version to definitively show why it exists. I don't believe it's from another country; I just think it was produced in lower frequency than the standard one. Each time one shows up on ebay, which is only about five times that I can remember, the price is crazy. 

I was able to get mine at a not so crazy price because it was listed with this above pillow case and the other was the only one shown in the featured listing photo. In my opinion, the above case is just a homemade pillow case sewn from either the sheets or the curtains. This material is easy to come by. I got lucky that the rarer one was hidden in the second picture. I wrote a post about nearly all the Dukes of Hazzard bed sets, blankets and sleeping bags a while ago. You can check it out here. I am nearly certain that I have all the sleep set items, now that I got the rare pillow case, but you never know. Do you know of any other sleep items I'm missing?

More New Dukes Stuff blog posts coming very soon, don't go too far away!
