Quiz: Spot the fake logo

As a graphic designer, I get a kick out logo quizzes. Sorry; here's another one. Your job is to choose the logos that have never been official marks for various companies. After taking the quiz, my conclusions: 1) Are you kidding? They actually used some of those? 2) I stink at this quiz. 12 out of 20.

    I stink more--10 out of 20. Though I have no graphic design background, so maybe that excuses my pitiful performance?

    I could have washed the floors but chose to do this quiz instead. Can you say "Procrastination"! 14 out of 20. Not bad! Thanks for the fun distraction.

    10 out of 10. Some of those logos are the worst ever and I can't believe they used them!

    I got ten right. But I had a handicap of being a Brit and so not recognising some of the logos at all!

    The Pepsi logo that has "never been used" looks exactly like the Australian Pepsi logo. Is this quiz wrong or is it my eyes that have the problem?

    The red is always on top in the Pepsi logo, so the left one has to be wrong. But when was C ever used? Or maybe it's been used for the parent company logo, not the soda brand? I don't know.

    I thought I was on a roll - I got the first 12 in a row correct. But then I ended up with a final score of 13/20.

    I got 12 out of 20 too.

    I can't believe I didn't catch the colour switch in the Pepsi one because I would have gotten that right.

    Also I got some I didn't know at all by sheer luck. I'm Canadian so I'm not familiar with some of them.
