(1993-1997)
Logo: On a black background, a purple and white letter "D" is seen rotating and zooming up to the screen. As it is zooming, "TYN", "D", and "ALE" in a cyan font and in all-caps appear and come together on the top part of the screen. Then, the word "family" in a faded pink handwriting-esque font appears with a left-to-right wiping effect below "TYNDALE". At the same time, the letters "V", "I", "E", and "O", which are in the same font as "TYNDALE" and have the same color as the zooming letter "D", appear. The letter "D" that was first seen zooming up to the screen finishes zooming at this time, and the"V", "I", "E", and "O" arrange themselves where the letter "D" is at the bottom part of the screen to make "VIDEO". Once this is completed, the words "Distributed by" appear in white at the top of the logo. After a few seconds, the logo fades out.

Variants: Sometimes the words "Distributed by" are not shown. On Spunky's First Christmas, the logo fades out early so that the words "in association with" can be shown during the last part of the music.

Technique: The letters appearing and arranging themselves, the word "family" appearing, the letter "D" zooming up, the words "Distributed by" appearing.

Music/Sounds: A synth sounder made of some droning and two chords.

Availability: Rare. Can be seen on some tapes of Superbook and McGee and Me.
