Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 10 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, 2014.

Warner Home Video had announced that this will be the final release in the Golden Collection series. Succeeding the Golden Collection series would be the Looney Tunes Super Stars series, which, although initially retired when the Golden Collection series was brought back, was revived following this release.

Much like the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 6, this volume includes 15 bonus cartoons spread over 4 discs, resulting in a total of 80 cartoons, more than any previous volume. Five of the 80 cartoons - Haredevil Hare, Martian Through Georgia, Jumpin' Jupiter, Rocket-bye Baby, and Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century - had been included on a previous Golden Collection, a first in the series, while the remaining 75 cartoons are new to the Golden Collection.

One of the cartoons featured on this set (Prest-O Change-O) is in the public domain. Cartoons on public domain tapes tended to be of poor quality, but this cartoon has been restored for this particular release.

Like volumes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9, volume 10 has a warning before each disk about the shorts containing content that some viewers would not consider to be "politically correct" by today's standards (but will be shown uncut for historical reasons).
