# Bugs Bunny 80th Anniversary Collection

Looney Tunes: Bugs Bunny 80th Anniversary Collection is a Blu-ray Disc box-set released by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on December 1, 2020. It contains 60 Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies shorts starring Bugs Bunny and numerous bonus features and supplementary content. The set's packaging includes a slip book, a booklet, and a collectible Bugs Bunny Funko! POP doll.
Initially conceived by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment as a single-disc Blu-ray Disc version of The Essential Bugs Bunny DVD set with an additional Funko! doll, animation historian Jerry Beck convinced the department heads to extend the set to three discs and include cartoons not previously released on DVD or Blu-ray Disc in order to appeal to adult collectors. The set includes 32 newly restored and remastered cartoons that were previously unavailable on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection DVD and Looney Tunes Platinum Collection Blu-ray Disc sets, in addition to 20 "essential" shorts ported over from those previous collections. Eight cartoons (Lumber Jack-Rabbit, Napoleon Bunny-Part, People Are Bunny, Person to Bunny, From Hare to Heir, The Million Hare and False Hare) had been previously restored and released on the Looney Tunes Super Stars DVDs, however, this Blu-ray Disc set presents them in their original 4:3 aspect ratio (as opposed to the Super Stars sets which had them cropped to "widescreen"). According to Beck, with this collection along with the previous Golden and Platinum Collections, Looney Tunes fans and collectors would be able to own approximately 90% of Bugs Bunny's filmography.
The set also marks the first official home media release of the Max series Looney Tunes Cartoons, with 10 Bugs Bunny centric episodes included as bonus features.
