*Strangely, this logo replaces the 1993 logo on certain TV airings and prints of ''Matilda'', including TBS and Freeform, which sometimes uses the 1993 music over the 1984 logo, likely due to reverse plastering.

*Many video and international theatrical releases of Carolco productions remove this logo, but it's preserved on some films, such as ''Pound Puppies and the Legend of Big Paw'', ''DeepStar Six'', ''Universal Soldier'', ''Rambo: First Blood Part II'', ''Basic Instinct'', a demo VHS of ''Red Heat'', VUDU and YouTube streaming prints of ''Homeboy'' (1988), current releases of ''Rambo III'', and streaming prints, the 1998 Widescreen LaserDisc release and reportedly, an Encore airing and Australian, French, and Brazilian DVDs of ''Terminator 2: Judgment Day'', as well as being present on the [[RCA/Columbia Pictures/Hoyts Video Pty. Ltd.|RCA/Columbia/Hoyts]] VHS release, and the 2012 UK theatrical re-release of ''Total Recall''. It is unknown if the Kino Lorber Blu-Ray of ''DeepStar Six'' preserves the Tri-Star/Carolco combo.

*It was also preserved on French VHS releases of ''Total Recall'' and ''Hamlet'' (1990).
*Also seen on ''The Kiss'' (including the Canadian [[Astral Video]] VHS), international prints of ''Fright Night Part II'' (including the German Blu-Ray), and on the original [[MGM/UA Home Entertainment|MGM/UA Home Video]] VHS release of ''Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo'', a Cannon film released by TriStar originally (the current DVD version has it replaced with the 2001 MGM lion).
*Also seen on the British DVD of ''Iron Eagle II'' and a foreign Blu-Ray (and some streaming prints) of ''Extreme Prejudice''; it is also intact on the recent Vestron Video/Lionsgate Blu-Ray of the latter film.
*It is retained on the DVD release of ''Places in the Heart'' (although the CBS/FOX Home Video VHS release removes this logo).
*It's also retained on [[Paramount Pictures|Paramount]]'s official YouTube print of ''Ironweed'', since it uses the same master found on the [[Olive Films]] DVD and Blu-Ray, and was also intact on the Lionsgate DVD, after the third [[Vestron Video]] logo, as it used a VHS master.
*It may have also been seen on original theatrical prints of the first ''Silent Night, Deadly Night'' film, but these particular prints have more than likely been destroyed in the aftermath of that film's controversy and subsequent withdrawal from theaters.

*Also may be found on theatrical prints of ''High Spirits'' and ''Santa Claus: The Movie''; for both films, this won't show up on current releases. However, it was preserved on HBO airings of ''Santa Claus: The Movie'' from the late-1980s (including a Christmas Eve 1986 broadcast), among other possible premium cable prints.

*It was also retained on VOD prints of ''Lifeforce'', including prints on now-defunct FEARNet, and surprisingly, the original UK VHS release from [[Guild Home Video|Guild]] and the U.S. [[Scream Factory]] Blu-Ray (the latter after the MGM lion). It doesn't appear on the original Vestron Video VHS, the 1997 MGM/UA Movie Time VHS or the 2000 MGM DVD (both of which include the film's international cut, where it probably wouldn't be intact at all anyway). It may be intact on the Video Treasures reprint, but the odds aren't likely.

*The trailer logo is rare and seen on previews of TriStar films from 1991-1993, such as ''Bugsy'', ''Candyman'', ''Sniper'', ''Cliffhanger'', and ''Sleepless in Seattle'' (the latter uses the next logo on the main feature).
