'''Availability:''' Common. Although subject to plastering with the 1994 and 2001 logos, it is still fairly common on UA-released films of the period such as ''Baby Boom'', ''Rain Man'', and ''Rocky V'' to name a few. First appeared on ''The Living Daylights'' and it made a final appearance on ''Son of The Pink Panther''. It can also be found on the 1997 DVD of ''The Black Stallion'', the MGM MOD DVD-R of ''Tomorrow Is Forever'', the 2001 DVD of ''All Dogs Go to Heaven'', ''License to Kill'', and ''Child's Play'', TCM airings of ''Malta Story'' and ''Valdez Is Coming'', ThisTV airings of ''The World of Henry Orient'', ''Call Me Bwana'', ''The Barefoot Contessa'', ''Bound for Glory'' (with the 6th logo following it), ''Ten Seconds of Hell'', ''Support Your Local Sheriff!'', ''Trail of the Pink Panther'', ''True Love'', ''The Aviator'', and ''Heaven's Gate'' (the shorter general release cut) and Comet airings of ''The Man from Planet X'' and ''Minotaur, the Wild Beast of Crete''. Interestingly, this logo also appears on 2005 DVD of ''Fatal Beauty'' (1987 MGM film). This logo was often paired off with the popular MGM/UA Communications logo (which is sometimes cut off like on current prints of ''The Living Daylights'' and a 1993 MGM/UA Home Video print of ''Rocky''), and both logos are thus regarded as favorites. However, the short variant seems slightly easier to find than the normal variant. The Scope variant is extinct and only appears on older letterboxed video releases of ''The Living Daylights'' and used to plaster older logos on certain older DVD releases. The low tone version was spotted on the Blu-Ray release of ''Rain Man'', on the French audio track.  

'''Availability:''' Fairly common. Not as common as it once was when it was the chief means of plastering during most of the 1990s and some of the 2000s. In fact, it's believed to be how this logo first appeared, with the print logo appearing as early as the 1994 LaserDisc release of ''The Black Stallion''; the logo would make its theatrical debut on ''Tank Girl''. This also plastered the MGM/UA Communications variant of the 10th logo on the original MGM DVD releases (as well as on select mid-1990s VHS reissues) of ''Child's Play'' and ''Rain Man''. Also seen on the 007 films ''GoldenEye'' and ''Tomorrow Never Dies'' and even appeared on a trailer of ''The World Is Not Enough'' (though the film itself used the MGM 75th anniversary logo). It is also preserved on older MGM tapes and DVDs (an example being ''12 Angry Men''). On Blu-ray, this appears on the Scream Factory release of ''The Rage: Carrie 2'', MGM's releases of ''The Birdcage'', ''Rob Roy'', the 2014 remastered release of ''Rocky'' (even appearing on the 2020 theatrical re-release), and ''Ronin'' (as well as on the 2017 Arrow Video remastered Blu-ray). Strangely, this logo appears on late '90s VHS releases of MGM produced titles such as ''Death Warrant'', ''Thelma and Louise'', ''Delirious'', ''Shattered'' (1991), and other early '90s MGM-Pathè films. Made a surprise appearance on ThisTV broadcasts of ''Separate Tables'' and ''Buffalo Bill and the Indians'' (the latter of which plasters over a Transamerica logo). This is also seen on the Region 4 DVD release of ''The Secret Of NIMH''.
