***The second version appeared on original prints of ''The Return of the Pink Panther'' (including one used in 1984 by then-independent station WNEW-TV in New York); that film's rights later reverted to its production company, [[ITC Entertainment Group|ITC Entertainment]], which frequently removed this logo (MGM regained US theatrical, and global digital distribution and television rights to the film during the 2010s).

**For home media releases including the 2000 MGM DVDs and subsequent Blu-Rays, this is generally plastered on the films proper, though occasionally preserved on extra material. For example, ''From Russia With Love'' releases feature the logo for a split second at the end of a double billing trailer for said film and ''Thunderball'', while releases of ''Thunderball''  preserve the "re-released" variant on a reissue trailer for a double feature of said film and ''You Only Live Twice''. Additionally, the standard still variant is preserved on the theatrical trailer of ''Diamonds Are Forever'' as seen on that film's Blu-Ray release, as well as making a brief appearance on the making-of documentary for said film.
