Yakky shared Yakko's body design, but was dressed only in a blue bow-tie, Smakky had Wakko's body and clothes (albeit with a green shirt instead of a blue one), but sported a scowl and perpetually had his arms crossed, Wakky was a small, Dot-sized character who wore blue shorts, and Dot's design at this point included a pink blouse and a pink bow in her hair. As the design evolved away from ducks, a sister (who was not named in concept art) was added to the ensemble.

Plucky at one point was actually going to be the host of the whole show, with one draft of the show being called Plucky Duck Theater.The team eventually decided that a show starring a group of ducks had been done before, and retooled the premise to star 1930s-style cartoon characters.

The concept for the show was originally going to star a family/group of green ducks, since the baby version of Plucky Duck from Tiny Toon Adventures went over so well, but wouldn't be related to Plucky and would have nothing to do with the rest of that cast.

Early designs of the main characters with a scrapped forth sibling named Wakky.
