Those are all excellent objects for a mid-summer night's observing.
I've seen NGC 6543 through a 24" Tectron equipped with an I3 Piece a couple of times and much of the internal structure visible in the Misti Mountain Observatory image was visible. NGC 40 was also quite spectacular through that setup.
NGC 7008 is an interesting planetary nebula that I've observed on more than a few occasions. NGC 7027, a very young bipolar proto-planetary nebula, is another object in Cygnus that deserves greater attention.
