Do you have in the states the box with all 6 DVD of the pink panther's movie ?? Just asking, because Shag did the cover of it for the french version, with a very big design and everything. It's a very nice box.

I've actually been investigating this for the past couple of weeks. Right now the set is only being sold in PAL (Region 2 areas) which won't work on our DVD players. I've emailed a couple of DVD stores in the UK asking if they carried any of the US versions but as of now there are none available. The set MAY be done here for the US market in about 6 months but there is NO guarantee.
This is why we here in the states have not seen any promoting of the event yet. We're just starting to see some of the products being releasesd, such as the paper products, but nothing else. I really want one of the Shag special edition Panther DVD sets but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be made here in the states.

The pictures of the set look spectacular and I can only hope. It's difficult to find a "mulit-region" DVD player here in the states while I hear that they are abundant in the UK.
Keep watching this site too. Shag has done the artwork even though all the links aren't working yet.

The Pink Panther box set with Shag artwork is widely available now in the UK, though it's probably region 2 only.
Yeah, multi-region DVD players are what most people go for over here as it's easy to pick up cheap imports from the Far East, and new releases from the US tend to come out a couple of months before their release in Europe. (Though the gap constantly narrows)

I kill myself laughing every time I see that movie. I have to agree that a Shag poster/dvd cover of The Party would be high on my list.

The pink panther combined with Shag's art?
That's about the coolest thing I have ever heard!
Anybody know anything about the upcoming remake? Is it with steve Martin?

Just a reminder, The Pink Panther DVD collection is out, although it doesnt have the same box cover art on the outside as the european release.

I got the Penthouse party CD yesterday at a local indie CD shop that had a huge Pink Panther Window display with Shag promo stuff. The CD is pretty cool. The Mancini original theme song with some remixes, a Fever remix, The Girl From Ipanema remix, Peter Gunn, Weapon Of Choice by Fatboy Slim, and others. The CD cover has a foldout picture of Shag's Penthouse Party.

I saw it today at work (Target) for 44$. It has Shag artwork on the back. Just FYI.
