Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 6 is a four-disc DVD box set collection of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons. Following the pattern of one release each year of the previous volumes, it was released on October 21, 2008.

Warner Home Video has announced that this will be the final release in the Golden Collection series.[1] However, further Looney Tunes DVD releases beyond this are planned.[2]

15 of the non-bonus cartoons (1/4 of all the non-bonus cartoons in total) featured in this set are in the public domain - more than any previous set. Cartoons on public domain tapes tended to be of poor quality, but these 15 cartoons have been restored for this particular release.
