Hi All
Just a few extra to consider
NGC6302 The BUG. Great name for a planetary and true as well
NGC6337 The Diamond Ring another great name which is true as well.
IC418 The Red palnetary and when you look at it with a 12" or large scope the colour is red with averted vision.
He2-104 The Southern Crab, A faint nebula but does appear to have legs splayed like a crab in the 18" and larger scope.(actually a proto planetary)
There are plenty of others that are great ina 20" scope

I noticed that NGC6164/5 has been mentioned and while it is a great object and one of my favourites it is not a planetary. It is a shell surrounding a fairly new star.
