Audio: Same as the Icon Productions logo.
Availability:
- Appears on Icon DVD releases in the United Kingdom, including Thomas and the Magic Railroad, The Little Vampire, and Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium.
- As noted above, this logo was not used on VHS tapes (although the print logo is used on the packaging) in the UK, instead resorting to the "FILM DISTRIBUTION" variant, as seen on releases such as The Magic Pudding.
- By the time Lionsgate Home Entertainment took over UK distribution in the 2010s, this logo was dropped in favor of the standard Icon logo for de-facto purposes.
- It is unknown if Australian releases used this logo or the standard Icon logos, but once again, the print logo is used.
