'''Availability:''' Extremely rare. Was seen in Australian cinemas during this time period. Has turned up on early [[Roadshow Entertainment (Australia)|Roadshow Home Video]] tapes of ''Mad Max'' and ''Megaforce'', though most titles edited this logo out and went straight to the movie. Other films that had this logo in theatrical release include ''First Blood'', ''Scanners'', and ''Gallipoli''. | '''Availability:''' Extremely rare.

''' | '''Legacy:''' The logo's effects are really nice for 1979, and it's a favorite among Australian logo fans. | ||

'''Availability:''' Extinct. Was only ever seen in Australian cinemas during this time period as VHS tapes cut the logo out and TV channels used the Roadshow Television logo. However, it did appear on TV airings of ''The Miami Connection'' as late as 1997. | '''Availability:''' Extinct.

''' | '''Legacy:''' The music, in-your-face effects, and dark background may scare some people. Some may also be caught off guard with the giant text. This is also considered to be the rarest Australian logo on the wiki. The [[Roadshow Entertainment (Australia)|Home Video]] variant is much easier to come across. | ||

'''Availability:''' Common outside of North America and Europe, as this is mainly seen in Australian and New Zealand cinemas. The first version is preserved on Fox Classics airings of ''Muriel's Wedding'', the original theatrical trailer of ''The Castle'', some prints of ''The Dish'' and strangely is found in place of the Roadshow Entertainment logo at the end of the 2002 Australian VHS release of ''Cats & Dogs''. The second version is easier to find and can be found on recent Roadshow productions like ''I Love You Too'', ''The Cup'' and most notably ''Red Dog''. | '''Availability:''' Common outside of North America and Europe, as this is mainly seen in Australian and New Zealand cinemas.

''' | '''Legacy:''' Though most people say this logo needs an update, the reflection's animation still holds up very well today. | ||
