Saban Home Entertainment

Background
Saban Home Entertainment was a home video label of Saban Entertainment, and their second after Saban Video. Before the Saban Home Entertainment label was created, Saban released Power Rangers and X-Men tapes through PolyGram Video. However, in April 1994, it was announced that Saban Entertainment had signed a new home video deal with A-Vision Entertainment to distribute Saban products through the Saban Home Entertainment and Libra Home Entertainment labels.

In December 1995, Time Warner announced plans to spin-off WarnerVision and revert it back to A-Vision Entertainment. However, they soon cancelled this, and the company was folded into Warner Home Video. With this, Saban ended their contract with Warner and signed a new home video deal with 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment in October 1996, with the Saban Home Entertainment label being retired.

1st Logo (1994-1996)


Visuals: A background fades in, then zooms back to reveal a  circle (the same one from the 1988 Saban TV logo) which is seen over a /black gradient night sky background with lots of stars and two spotlights (similar to King World's 1990 logo) moving back and forth. At the same time, the white marble square from the aforementioned logo zooms out. The circle then begins to fit in the square's circle space. The letters of the word "SABAN" appear one at a time on the circle via a "flashing" effect, followed by three lines flashing below "SABAN". The words "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" with a line below the words fade in below the circle.
