WordOfGod from Creator/PythonAnghelo is that the game was quickly rushed through development to fill a gap in the Bally production line. Unfortunately, it shows, as ''Bugs Bunny's Birthday Ball'' is often considered one of the weakest games from Williams and a disappointing waste of the license. The Chicken Coop crowds up the playfield for little value, there's a dearth of modes and satisfying shots, and the 50 Million shot and random score-switching "Surprise Package" makes it useless for competitive play. Only around 2,500 tables were manufactured, but there is little interest from either pinball collectors or animation buffs.
