Are you sure? I thought for sure that Bugs stole the Illudium PU-36
Explosive Space Modulator, from Marvin the Martian.

Oh well, it won't be the first time I've been wrong...

Nah - it's where they put the mobile Illudium PU-36 Explosive Space

Modulator.

Right up until the rabbit steals it!

Apparently Bugs, Daffy and more failed Marvin:

A quote:

Explosive Space Modulator", which resembles a mere stick of dynamite (The
original reference to "Uranium PU-36" changed to "Illudium PU-36" in
subsequent cartoons. Some people mistake the sound of "PU" for a "Q" and
say "Q-36." However, the weapon's name is derived from the letters "PU"
which coincidentally is the atomic symbol for Plutonium—named for the
dwarf planet Pluto). Marvin is consistently foiled by Bugs Bunny. He has
battled for space territory with Daffy Duck, a.k.a. Duck Dodgers in the
24˝th Century.
