Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 6

**Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 6** is the sixth and final DVD box set in the *Looney Tunes Golden Collection* series. It contains sixty cartoons, plus fifteen bonus shorts, making a total of seventy-five shorts in the set. It was released in October 2008.

Like other *LTGC* volumes beforehand, all cartoons in the set, including the politically incorrect ones, are shown uncut for historical reasons. Unlike all other Looney DVD releases, the box art states that the release is "intended for the adult collector and *is not* suitable for children", as opposed to "*may not* be suitable for children", due to the volume having more politically-incorrect cartoons than other releases, some which are World War II cartoons. However, the re-released complete volume set, which has all six volumes, used the content warning from Volumes 3 to 5.

This set contains the most public domain cartoons of all the *Golden Collection* DVDs, having a total of fourteen public domain cartoons. It has the second largest number of public domain cartoons on this DVD set, just next to *Porky Pig 101* from Warner Home Video|Warner Archive which came out nine years later.

## Notes

* Two of the bonus cartoons appearing on this DVD set, "Sniffles Takes a Trip" on Disc 1 and "Hop and Go" on Disc 2, use unreleased stereo mixes of their soundtracks made by combining both their respective original soundtracks and recreated music-and-effects-only tracks, and in the case of "Sniffles Takes a Trip", have canned audio in both the opening and altered ending music cues, as well as the unaltered parts of the background music. Some of characters' dialogue volumes in both shorts has been decreased, making it hard for viewers to understand the lines the characters say.
* The restored version of "Boyhood Daze", a bonus feature on Disc 1, is apparently sourced from a 1998 Dubbed print, without the Dubbed notice, marking it the first and only time since *Golden Collection Volume 1* where these 1998 restorations are used on the *Golden Collection* DVD series. This cartoon was later re-restored in HD for *Looney Tunes Platinum Collection: Volume 1* Blu-Ray/DVD set in 2011.
