'''Availability:''' Most of the back catalog's been reissued by [[MGM Home Entertainment]]. Titles with this logo include ''RoboCop'' and ''RoboCop'' ''2'', ''Dirty Rotten Scoundrels'', ''UHF'', ''Frog'', ''Mac and Me'', and ''State of Grace'', among others. The still variant can be found on a 1988 VHS of ''Married to the Mob''. The short and silent version also can be spotted on some early 1990s [[GoodTimes Entertainment|GoodTimes Home Video]] releases that were under license from Orion, including ''Bobbie Jo and the Outlaw'', ''Breaker! Breaker!'', ''Class'', ''Lone Wolf McQuade'', and ''Back to School'', among others. Orion's first home video release was ''Malone''.

'''Visuals:''' On a star background, the five stars fade into view. Instead of moving to form the "O", they break formation and swirl around, forming an outline of the Orion logo that quickly fills with chrome silver. "H O M E---V I D E O" then moves from the bottom of the screen to join the Orion logo, and they both shine. The stars from the beginning then return, swirling around the logo, causing it to disappear.
