Description
Over at the Wheel of Fortune History Wiki, I learned about a full episode of New Zealand Wheel from about 1992 - the infamous "'O' for Awesome" or should I saw "'O' for Olsen" episode with David Tua.
I must warn you that only people visiting or living in New Zealand are allowed to watch this episode. Because of this, I sought help at the Buy A Vowel boards for the layouts used, especially with the layouts used in rounds 2 and 3. Someone was able to help me with them.
After seeing the piece of video available on YouTube, I noticed how the round one layout heavily resembled this Australian layout from 1987.

Besides the colors and the number of pegs used (Australia used four for each wedge while New Zealand used the normal three), there was one value that I noticed was different. The yellow space two spaces clockwise of the Free Spin space was only worth $130 compared to $135 in Australia.
UPDATE! (December 26, 2014) Noticed that the center of the Wheel was not blue. It was a glittery bright silver with a white border (with a blue five-point star outline that's not pictured here). How did I? Well, here's the episode at long last!

UPDATE! (December 29, 2014) After analyzing the colors in the above episode, I am 100% sure of what the Round 1 layout looked like in October 1992 (one site stated Tua's infamous episode aired on October 10, a Saturday).

Do you know if New Zealand played it like Australia did? I've only seen the 2008 edition, which didn't last long.
