* The lamp is the titular character from Pixar's very first animated short, ''Luxo Jr.'', made in 1986. "Luxo" was trademarked by Jac Jacobsen Industrier A.S., also known as Luxo ASA. The sound effects are also taken from said short. Luxo Jr. was also a unlockable character in ''Lego The Incredibles'', known simply as "Junior", due to a copyright issue with Luxo ASA, and was unlocked after completing a Family Build of Luxo Jr. and the ball. Both the build and the character are made with Lego bricks and are different than the one shown in the Pixar logo variant shown below. | * The lamp is the titular character from Pixar's very first animated short, ''Luxo Jr.'', made in 1986.

* On original prints of ''Cars'' and the video game adaptation of said film, the text "20 YEARS" (with Luxo Jr.'s light replacing the 0 in "20"), with "CELEBRATING" above it in tiny letters, appears when the logo dims, using the closing version of the logo as a base. | * On original prints of ''Cars'' and the video game adaptation of said film, the text "20 YEARS" (with Luxo Jr.'s light replacing the 0 in "20"), with "CELEBRATING" above it in tiny letters, appears when the logo dims, using the closing version of the logo as a base. | ||
* On theatrical releases of ''Cars 2'', after the logo finishes, the letters disappear leaving just the lamp, a la the closing version. Then, everything fades out and "CELEBRATING" fades in and slowly zooms in on a black background. Behind the text "25 YEARS" (with "25" above the "YEARS") fades in behind the "CELEBRATING" and is in a light blue font. The normal logo is seen elsewhere. | * On theatrical releases of ''Cars 2'', after the logo finishes, the letters disappear leaving just the lamp, a la the closing version.
