John Wayne Signature Collection....
Sorry if this has been asked before (I did do a search), but does anyone know the movies in this set and if there's anything new?
Amazon and other sites have no details.

Can you supply a link to some info you have about it? Is this an upcoming release....or an existing set?
The title doesn't ring a bell, and I own most everything out on DVD that relates to the Duke.....

Here's the synopsis direct from Warner:
The Signature Collection includes the films Stagecoach, The Searchers, Rio Bravo, and The Cowboys.
Stagecoach (1939) is the John Ford masterpiece regarded by many as the greatest Western ever made and stars Wayne as The Ringo Kid, an outlaw with a heart of gold. The Searchers (1956) finds Wayne as a Civil War Veteran out for revenge, in a film that directors such as Scorsese, Spielberg, and Lucas have all cited as a major influence on their work. In Rio Bravo (1959) it's Sheriff John Wayne teaming up with co-stars Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson, and in The Cowboys (1972), the Duke faces off against a psychotic, vengeful ex-con (Bruce Dern), cementing his legend as one of the greatest personas ever to be captured on film.
