A little under a year ago, physical media fans were thrilled at the value of the Looney Tunes Collector's Vault Volume 1. 50 classic cartoons on Blu-ray. But now, after a long 9 months, it is time for Volume 2 to be released.
Synopsis: A second helping of Looney Tunes vault rarities-over 50 classic cartoons, each marking their first time on Blu-ray , with many unseen in decades. From Bugs' battle with a fussy genie, to Tweety and Sylvester taking on "Hitchcock": with side trips, starring Conrad Cat, Teenage Tom Thumb, and Angelo, the Mighty Flea -- this carefully curated collection has it all. Representing the studio's first four decades, every Warner cartoon super-star is showcased among these two discs: the musical 1930s, the wartime 40s, Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng and Robert McKimson Classics from the 1950s -- even a smattering of Road Runner gems from the early 1960s. Additional fun from directors Bob Clampett, Frank Tashlin, Art Davis and Norm McCabe -- and favorites featuring Foghorn Leghorn, Pepe LePew, Speedy Gonzalez, The Goofy Gophers and Charlie Dog.

These cartoons are taken from around four decades of entertainment. And they are a wonderful mix of some of the best characters in the Looney Tunes ensemble. Warner Archive Collection's restoration and transfers to Blu-ray are sharp, and the colors are bright and vibrant. There are only a few instances of soft picture quality, but even those look pretty good.
