User:Tholden28/Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 7

Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 7 is a four-disc DVD box set collection of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons. Following the pattern of previously released sets, it was released on November 17, 2012.

After a four-year break without the release of a Golden Collection set, with the Looney Tunes Super Stars releases, the Looney Tunes Platinum Collection, the Looney Tunes Showcase, and the Essential series taking its place, Warner Home Video had announced that they would revive the Golden Collection series. The series largely followed the same format it had in the past, with 60 cartoons (including cartoons previously released on either a Looney Tunes Super Stars DVD or Platinum Colection) spread out across four discs though, unlike volume 6, did not include any additional bonus cartoons.

This is only the third Golden Collection set not to include a disc solely devoted to Bugs Bunny, the others being the volumes 5 and 6. Similar to volume 5, which included a disc devoted to this set Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, this set instead includes a disc devoted to Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd.

Eleven of the cartoons featured in this set are in the public domain. Cartoons on public domain tapes tended to be of poor quality, but these eleven cartoons have been restored for this particular release.

This set was originally only released in North America due to poor sales of previous volumes in other territories. However, the discs in this volume were not region encoded, making it easy for collectors outside of North America to import and play this set.
