Another glorious Looney Tunes collection comes to DVD just in time for the holidays, a four-disc collection with many of the best Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig cartoons along with hours of bonus features that are sure to thrill cartoon connoisseurs both young and old.

The first disc in this box set is devoted to Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, the second to Fairy Tales, the third to Bob Clampett toons while Porky Pig dominates disc four. In all, there are 60 restored and uncut cartoon shorts on 4 discs and they look beautiful, stunning really, for the first time we're seeing these masterpieces with the clarity of picture and color that was intended, as opposed to the scratchy prints we were used to growing up on TV reruns.

Besides the incredible cartoons from the 1930s & '40s - which, believe me, would be reason enough to love this box set - animation aficionados are flipping over these Looney Tunes Golden Collections because of the amazing number of bonus features, 5 hours worth in this set alone.

Here's the extras line-up for this DVD set:
- Fantastic audio commentaries on select episodes by top animation experts
- 3 fine documentaries on Chuck Jones (Chuck Jones: Extremes and Inbetweens, A Life in Animation), Robert McKinson and other Looney Tunes directors
- Music and special effects only tracks on select shorts (fun!)
- 3 TV prime-time Looney Tunes specials with Bugs Bunny
- Rare Private Snafu and Mr. Hooks shorts
- Commercial, interstitials and audio recording sessions

This is truly entertainment the entire family can enjoy together. How many DVD releases can you say that about? All for around $47.00 (that's 28% off) if you order now online.
