Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 8 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.

This is only the fourth Golden Collection set not to include a disc solely devoted to Bugs Bunny, the others being the volumes 5, 6, and 7. Like volume 5, this set instead includes a disc devoted to Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck.

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.

Disc 1: Bugs and Daffy Masterpieces

edit
All cartoons on this disc star Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, or both.
