Logo: On a black background, there are two unfolding words; "Firehorse" in red with the second part of the F, and makes an odd shape connected in place and the circle to dot the I and "Films" in pink which zooms out all in a hard-to-describe font, connected to each other except for that horse thing as well as a white flash from the first F, all of which is zooming out.

Variant: Sometimes, a copyright fades in.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: Fireworks shooting and a horse's galloping noise which is followed by the same horse neighing.

Availability: It has been seen on many prints of Bro Town, which aired on TV3 then C4/Four/TheEdgeTV and Comedy Central (New Zealand) and possibly, when airing in Australia, it aired on SBS.
