wait a minute, what controversy has Elmer Fudd gotten caught in? The controversy surrounding Elmer Fudd is the fact that he carried a gun. Warner Bros. has since censored his gun, and since Elmyra is Fudd’s Tiny Toon counterpart, that’s why she’s not going to be on this Tiny Toons reboot. This is why I believe Fifi won’t be returning either because Pepe Le Pew’s actions have been considered “sexual harassment” in a lot of people’s eyes. Unfortunately, that’s the world we live in these days where everything has to be “politically correct” now.

First of all... you failed to pick up the Mortal Kombat reference.
Second, when was Elmyra a popular character? She was a "Creator's Pet" character in the past but there were so many fans that hated her and felt she was overused. Furthering this issue is the fact in 1998 she technically destroyed Pinky and the Brain.
Third, the killing off of Pepe Le Pew was really just a big publicity stunt. They cut his sequence in Space Jam: A New Legacy to try to get some people interested but clearly that didn't work as while the movie was essentially critic-proof, it was a dud financially. The movie is not even on anybody's mind right now.
Fourth, Pete Browngardt (creator of Uncle Grandpa and director of several new Looney Tunes cartoons) did say they didn't plan on eliminating him from the Looney Tunes.
Besides, you do see some production pieces where she does appear. Where exactly did they go right out and explicitly state that Fifi is not returning to give you that idea?
Are you allowed to be negative, yes. Is it helping you, no.

As I said already twice, she is in the concept art, but SO IS ELMYRA!!! Don’t you find that in the least bit suspicious???

Since Candi Milo is on board, that confirms that Sweetie is returning. With Frank Welker on board, that means we’re getting Furball and Gogo. I don’t know who Eric Bauza voiced, but I assume Dee Bradley Baker will be voicing Plucky.
Kath Soucie you say too? That could be a hint that Fifi is returning after all, but she also voiced Lil’ Sneezer, remember.
Though I find it kind of odd that Tress MacNielle isn’t returning. Weird that they’re getting some of the original cast back, but not all of them. I mean, I know Joe Alaskey and Don Messick are dead, but Tress MacNielle is still alive. I’m guessing she’s either retired, or there’s some kind of contract conflict going on with her.

Though I must ask: Have we gotten any word yet on Charlie Adler, Billy West, Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche? I would assume they might come back too since they’re all very much still active in the voice acting world.

Babs sounds good in that trailer, Buster however needs to sound a little deeper to match how Charlie Adler and John Kassir did him back in the 90s

Looks like Warner Bros. took the video down for copyright. I'm sure there's another place you can watch it though.

I did see the test video and it's not bad.
I may have to adjust to their new voices but I like it so far.

Well, it was just announced today that HBO Max is shutting down, but a new replacement for it is in the works, so it looks like we are going to have to wait even longer for this Tiny Toons reboot (if it even happens at all).
