I reckon those 12" scoops would sound nice and punchy used above a sub (eg 18" scoop) to play high bass up to say 160Hz..

cheers for the help folks, basically i now have 2 fane collossus 18xb cones in reflex cabs and 4 of the jbl 2206 so ill look into some of these designs and hopefully come up with a nice bass system i also have 2 jbl mpx1200s to run the bass. think id like to build 4 12'' scoops and 2 18" scoops
18" = 40hz - 80 hz maybe 100hz
12" = 100hz - 160hz
tops = 160hz upwards

Do you think my cones would be happy in this cab as theres an extra 300w rms coming through mine?

A 18" scoop ussually has a dip in the frequency respons around 70 - 80 Hz. A 12" downscaled scoop would probably have it's dip around 100-120 Hz.

With the crossover frequencies you propose you would have two dips in the frequency respons, if close enough even just one giant dip, right there in the kickarea. All used in a monostack would flatten those dips out.
You might just like it.
