I know it's risky to make statements contrary to records like this, but that badge did NOT appear on HG's. On reflection, contrary to what I said earlier, I can't even be sure it ever appeared on those rare HT's with a Trimatic, but it did appear on early LC Toranas, from October '69. HG Trimatics had the same basic simple badge as the later models. That badge, as I said, was extremely rare and went out of production VERY quickly, for some reason. (Could be because it was bloody ugly). If anybody else can tell me that they recall this badge on HG's, please say so. I'll be willing to bet that nobody can remember them, yet the later badge is easy to recall because it was so common.
Notice how that listing only has one badge for Torana's. They had heaps of badges exclusive to the Torana, yet only one is on this listing, so it's not only inaccurate, it's incomplete. Where's the Series 70 from the HB, the Brabham Torana, the 2250/2600 badges/stickers from the fuel caps? Quite a few missing, but it's a fascinating site, just the same.
