Bumper: On the same space background as the 1986 CIC Video logo, we see the film's logo zoom in as revealed by a lens flare, and then, the film's logo zooms into a comfortable distance for the text to fade in. The text reads:

CIC Video's cassette of "E.T. - The Extra- Terrestrial" reproduces the high quality of picture and sound insisted upon by the producers of this exceptional film

Afterwards, the text fades out for some more text to fade in. The text on the top space reads:

BEWARE OF ILLEGAL VIDEO CASSETTES OF "E.T. - THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL"

And the text on the bottom space reads:

Check whether the video cassette of "E.T. - The Extra-Terrestrial" provided to you carries the CIC VIDEO POLAROID STICKER

The text fades out and the film's logo zooms in to cover the whole screen retaining the space background, revealing a shining polarised hologram (with many copies of the CIC Video logo on it), and then, a video cassette fades in behind it and they zoom out, revealing that the hologram is on the front end of the cassette. The text above and below the cassette read:

All legal video cassettes of "E.T. - THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL" have the polaroid sticker attached

SECURITY STICKER

Then a shining polarised hologram (with many copies of the CIC logo on it) appears. Then a video cassette fades in behind it and both zoom out, revealing that the hologram is on the front end of the cassette. Text above and below the cassette reads:

POOR QUALITY ILLEGAL VIDEO CASSETTES
REDUCE YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE AND
JEOPARDIZE FUTURE FILM PRODUCTION.

Variant: On later Australian tapes with this bumper, which plays after the 1991-1997 variant of the CIC logo, which is on a black background, with the same text, the same hologram image & the same video zoom out on the blue gradient. The same text appears but in lowercase.
