All but seven cartoons included on this volume — Lovelorn Leghorn, The Hasty Hare, Hare-Way to the Stars, Bill of Hare, A Witch's Tangled Hare, Feline Frame-Up, and Boyhood Daze — were previously restored as part of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, the Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Academy Awards Animation Collection, or a Looney Tunes Super Stars DVD; of these seven, six are new to Blu-ray and DVD, while one (Boyhood Daze), had previously been included as an unrestored bonus cartoon on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 6.
A second volume was released in 2012, and was followed by a third volume in 2014. In June 2025, after being out of print for several years, Warner Bros.
