'''Availability:''' Uncommon. Seen on Pixar's animated shorts from 1986 until 1989. It is usually plastered over on re-releases of these shorts, but it is intact on certain shorts released on ''Pixar Short Films Collection Volume 1''. It has turned up on an original Australian VHS copy of ''Toy Story 2'' which had the short ''Luxo Jr.'' before the film. Was also seen on the early short ''Beach Chair'' which can be found on the aforementioned ''Pixar Short Films Collection Volume 1'' DVD (without the logo) as a bonus feature, as well as the rare Pixar employee DVD ''Made In Point Richmond'' (with the logo).

* The music varies at the tail end of ''Monsters, Inc.''; the widescreen version on DVD, Blu-ray and TV airings of said movie have the closing music ("Walk to Work", an excerpt from Randy Newman's score), but on the 2002 VHS release, the 2002 Australian DVD and the fullscreen version on DVD, the music uses one of the songs ("If I Didn't Have You", sung by Billy Crystal as Mike Wazowski and John Goodman as Sulley) from earlier in the credits reel due to bloopers and a conclusion short being shown earlier on. Other movies, like ''A Bug's Life'', ''Finding Dory'', ''Cars 3'', ''Incredibles 2'', and ''Soul'', have the film's closing theme play over as well.

'''Availability:''' Current and common. Seen on most Pixar 3-D releases starting with ''Up''. Also seen when the first two ''Toy Story'' films, ''Finding Nemo'', and ''Monsters, Inc.'' were re-released in Disney Digital 3-D. This and the 2011 [[Walt Disney Pictures|Disney]] logo plaster the previous logo on 3-D prints of ''For the Birds''. It also appears on both 3-D and even 2-D prints of newer shorts. The reanimated variant appears on the 3D version of ''Onward'' (''Soul'' and ''Luca'' had to cancel their theatrical runs because of the pandemic, and ''Toy Story 4'' used the previous logo), as well as the 2020 Disney Investor Day.

'''Editor's Note:''' A fun twist on the Pixar logo, perfectly taking advantage of the 3D format.
