* The music varies at the tail end of ''Monsters, Inc.''

'''Availability:''' Current and very common. Seen on all Pixar movies and shorts from 1995 onward, with the exception of 3-D prints of most newer movies, which use the next logo below. It first appeared at the end of ''Toy Story'' (and appears at the beginning of said film on most current prints, following the 2006 Walt Disney Pictures logo, and plastering the Pixar variant of the WDP logo) and has appeared at the beginning and end of all Pixar features starting with ''A Bug's Life''. The reanimated variant first appeared on the second trailer for ''Toy Story 4'', and made its official debut on the movie itself, even appearing on the 3-D version. The white background variant is fairly rare and was only seen on ''Buzz Lightyear of Star Command''. It plasters the previous logo on newer prints of ''Luxo Jr.'' and ''Knick Knack''. | '''Availability:''' Current and very common.
