'''Availability:'''Near extinction. This logo was only used in Australian cinemas. However this has shown up letterboxed on a 1984 PBV VHS of ''The Last Starfighter'', another unknown video and strangely enough the UK VHS release of ''Warriors of the Wind'', the infamous [[Manson International]] dub of ''Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind''. Also appears on the short film ''Palace of Dreams''. This makes a surprise appearance on the Umbrella Entertainment Blu-ray of ''Razorback'', instead of the Warner Bros. logo.

'''Legacy:''' The tunnel sequence and lasers will scare a few and the amount of shining may unnerve a few as well, but this is still a really cool logo.
