This has been rumored in this forum as coming in 2004, the 40th anniversary of the first movie.
I'd bet it comes to tie in with the new Birth of the Pink Panther movie starring Steve Martin.

And, the real question, would the R1 box include 'Return of the Pink Panther'? Does anybody know why the R2 doesn't?
I mean, I wouldn't be too interested in a box that has 'Trail' or, uh, whatever the other one released after Sellers died was. And I didn't really like 'Strikes Again' all that much. *And* I already have 'Return'. Maybe I should just buy 'A Shot in the Dark'.

This is from DVDFile. Unfortunately, it looks like Return of the Pink Panther will be absent from the R1 box set:
At last he's back. MGM Home Entertainment will paint April in pink, with the announcement of the long-awaited The Pink Panther Film Collection. This six-disc set will include newly-remastered anamorphic widescreen versions of five films in the series The Pink Panther, A Shot in the Dark, The Pink Panther Strikes Again, Revenge of the Pink Panther and the Peter Sellers-less The Trail of the Pink Panther (not included in this collection are The Curse of the Pink Panther, The Son of the Pink Panther, and the upcoming remake, The Birth of the Pink Panther), plus a bonus disc with the new documentary "The Pink Panther Story" and "The Pink Panther Cartoon Theatre," featuring a collection of six award-winning original cartoons and the featurette "Behind the Feline: The Cartoon Phenomenon." Other extras include an audio commentary by Blake Edwards and a trivia track on the first film. Retail will be $69.95 and street date April 6th.

Wal-Mart has tons of copies of RETURN OF THE PINK PANTHER in the $5.88 bin this week. It's the third film in the series and is missing from the Box Set since MGM doesn't own the rights to it.
The Artisan disc is decent, and in the OAR of 2:35 to 1, though the packaging mistakenly lists it as 1:85 to 1.
