'''Availability:''' Common. Appears on all Roadshow material during its era. The 2011 variant | '''Availability:''' Common. Appears on all Roadshow material during its era. The 2011 variant can be seen on more recent releases, such as the DVD release of ''Red Dog''. It was also seen on all 1993-2005 ABC Video and 1996-2005 BBC VHS releases they distributed, but it doesn't appear on the DVD's, even though the logo could be seen on the back and on the disc; however, early ABC DVD's such as ''Wiggly TV'' feature this logo. The 1993 music variation can be seen on every release with this logo until 1995, such as ''Pulp Fiction'', ''Ace Ventura: Pet Detective'', and ''The Mask''. It also appears at the end of the 1998 reprint VHS of ''Fireman Sam: A Spot Of Bother'', despite the opening being recycled from its 1992 VHS release. The 1993-1995 music variant also appears on locally-made New Zealand Roadshow tapes. The standard 16:9 version of the 1996 variant makes a surprise appearance on the DVD releases of ''Hamish & Andy’s Gap Year'', ''Hamish & Andy’s Euro Gap Year'' (disc 1), ''Hamish & Andy’s Gap Year Asia'' and ''Hamish & Andy’s Gap Year South America''. | ||
'''Editor's Note:''' A favorite among Aussie logo fans. It is widely thought this logo started in late 1992, yet the earliest releases to use it date back to February-March 1993. | '''Editor's Note:''' A favorite among Aussie logo fans.
