Funko Pops are stylized (with large heads and black pupils) and not replicas of the characters.

That's a great setlist! The new HBO Max cartoons are a lot of fun, too. I don't know if they're for everyone, but I found them to be funny and quite beautifully designed.

 

[Paul Penna]

Yay! Hare Splitter, at last.

Lumber-Jack Rabbit is included? If it was in 3-D I would buy the set.

 

[Garysb]

20.Blooper Bunny is not one of the classic cartoons. I like it and am glad it was included but that was the one with the Bug's 51 and 1/2 Anniversary. Elmer using Minoxidil hair restorer and Daffy flushing a toilet etc. 19.False Hare was the last of the classic Bugs cartoons.

I will be looking for store exclusives or foreign releases which might have the disks by themselves.

 

[B-ROLL]

It's amazing that someone, somewhere, thought these two things were "close enough".

Something tells me they were drinking a bottle of an adult beverage and not using their Looney Tunes Shot Glass (TM) !

My suggestion would be

A reproproduction of a Welch's grape jelly (jar) glass !

 

[Garysb]

This was probably included in an earlier set but I am surprised it wasn't included in this set.
Red Riding Hood was voiced by Bea Benaderet, who latter was the first voice of Betty Rubble, Kate on Petticoat Junction, Blanche on Burns and Allen, and Cousin Pearl on the Beverly Hillbillies. Also the first voice of Granny on Warner Bros cartoons.

 

[TJPC]

I would not want it for Free. Damn that is Ugly !

Can't I get one by putting a coin in a gum ball machine?

 

[Suzanne.S]

Pops are some of the biggest collectibles around. By the box and take the Pop to your local comic or collectibles shop. As an exclusive, it should be in high demand. I'm sure that someone will take it off your hands. It's a pretty minor quibble to make about what looks like a pretty fantastic box set.

 

[Traveling Matt]

I'll start by being positive: there are new restorations. That's great. However many there are. But for me I was done with "best ofs" when we switched from VHS to DVD. Never picked up the Super Stars in part for this reason, nor the Platinum Collections. I'm still on the Golden Collections. If they happen to put out the complete Bugs someday, which looks likely to be coincidence as much as intention with this creative direction, I might bite. But I'm not a casual fan. This isn't for me, but I'm happy for those who will enjoy it.

 

[RICK BOND]

$75.00 ??? I have No use for that Ugly Figurine. Also there are Favorite Bugs shorts of mine that are NOT included. ? ?? I will just get The Flintstones Bluray Set.

 

[AnthonyClarke]

I'll still be waiting for a definitive Bugs anthology. May be a long wait. I can't understand why the famous 'Rhapsody Rabbit', an acknowledged animation classic, is still missing in action. At least I have it on DVD.

WB has to save stuff for the other anniversary sets to come in the future.

 

[Garysb]

"Person to Bunny" released in 1960 was the last cartoon where Elmer Fudd was voiced by Arthur Q. Bryan. Per Wikipedia he died in November 1959, 5 months before the cartoon was released.

Here is a clip from a cartoon where Arthur Q. Bryan is voicing both Elmer and a tired business man. He uses his actual voice as the business man.

 

[Bernard McNair]

I enjoyed the Comic Con panel today and look forward to the set in November.
i agree with the comments on the funk, looks terrible- might put mine in the garden!!!
The PQ of the cartoons at the panel looked outstandin.

 

[StarDestroyer52]

Grabbed my pre-order from Amazon for the time being though I’m waiting to see if BullMoose will be carrying it as I’m sure they will be since I’m a bigger fan of their packaging and there quicker in shipping. Not a super fan of the Funko and wish they would’ve just kept it Funko free as it looks nothing like Bugs or none that I’m familiar with in my almost 30 years of watching Bugs. The Scooby Funko didn’t look super great but was better than this

 

[CeAlCuadrado]

Ok, Warner, now you got my attention.
I wonder if the box with the Funko Pop is the only way this collection will be released =/
