Flying Mallet, Inc.

Background
This is the vanity plate of Robert Mittenthal.

Logo (December 31, 1999-February 10, 2002)


Visuals: Over a simple light blue background with stylized clouds, a brown mallet with white wings rises from the screen, flapping its wings. It stops in the middle, and a transparent circle containing "FLYING MALLET INC" with "FLYING" on top and "MALLET INC" on the bottom, spins out and places itself in a position so that the winged mallet is in the center of it. The surrounding area of the circle then becomes solid white.

Variant: On KaBlam!, this logo is sped up.

Technique: A mix of traditional animation and CGI.

Audio: A "flapping" noise and the sound of wind blowing, followed by a long piano chord that carries on into the Nickelodeon Productions logo. KaBlam! used the end theme. On Cry Baby Lane, the closing theme ended with a series of drumstick taps synced to the wing animation. Split-screen credit airings of Action League Now! features this logo and the following Nickelodeon logo silent.

Availability: It was seen on the previously lost film Cry Baby Lane which airs occasionally on NickSplat on TeenNick, and the final season of KaBlam! from 1999-2000, which last seen on July 1, 2006 when the final season episode "Now With More Flava" aired on Nicktoons Network (now known as Nicktoons since 2009) as part of a special event titled Nicktoons A-Zim Weekend. It was seen with music on Action League NOW! on Nicktoons until the end of 2010.
