These are the logo variations seen on trailers throughout the years by Universal Studios.

Bird on a Wire (1990): The Universal logo gets shot at twice, with a flash for each gunshot.

Street Fighter (1994): On the teaser trailer, the text and byline disappear and the globe fades into the plain blue circle, when then reveals various clips from the movie.

Casper (1995): The 1927 Universal logo is used.

The Jackal (1997): The 1990-1997 Universal logo looks odd, and the MCA byline is a little stretched by height. Only on the teaser trailer.
