Pink Panther is a Kino Lorber release, stuck in HD on the Movie Store...but available on 4K disc from Kino Lorber. Any thoughts on the feasibility of a 4K Kscape release for all Pink Panther titles?

This has more to do with the studio than the boutique. For these, MGM is the studio. They will often release 4K boutique releases digitally but generally missing an audio/video component (usually HDR and/or Atmos). Also, there's no set timing so it could be weeks, months, or years. If you're not willing to wait, or want to make sure to get the best audio/video, then you'll want to grab the discs.

Thank you, I appreciate the response. The 4K box set holds a lot of appeal and has a lot of extras, I must admit.

I agree. I've been eyeing that box set as well. I have all of the Pink Panther movies in my Kscape wish list, hoping they would get a 4K upgrade, but not holding my breath.

I've also been contemplating "settling" for the HD versions, but with the price of each movie currently at $24.99, it's not worth it. Much more economical to get the 4K box set.

Perhaps it is time to reward yourself. :)
I'd appreciate Being There making it to 4K in the Kscape store too...
