1st Logo (1985-1991)
Fisher-Price Video (1980's)

Nicknames: "Clumsy F-P", "Be Careful, Letters"

Logo: On a blue CGI stage with red CGI Austrian curtains with a white fringe above, the Fisher-Price logo, in its corporate font, dances in from the right. The "F" stops all of a sudden, causing the other letters to fall over. A child giggles, and the letters flip themselves over. A hyphen fades in between the letters, along with a registered trademark (R) symbol on the top right of the last "E". The logo shines, and the byline "A Division of The Quaker Oats Company" (F-P was owned by the company from 1969 until 1991, when they became a publicly-traded company) fades in below. The curtain drops.

FX/SFX: All 2D computer animation in its early CGI.

Trivia: The curtain is actually the likeness of the actual corporate awning shape.

Music/Sounds: A playful synth tune ending in a synth horn fanfare.

Availability: Rare, as it is exclusive to Australia. It can be seen on a couple of Family Home Entertainment Australia tapes. It also turned up on many Hi-Tops Video releases of Someday Me and the English-dubbed version of Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics in North America and Europe.

2nd Logo (1992)
Fisher-Price (1992)

Nickname: "CGI awning"

Logo: Simply the company name "Fisher-Price" in its corporate font. Behind the text is a shaded red awning with white border edges on the bottom that covers the upper three quarters of the screen. Below is a blue background. There are shadows underneath the text and a spotlight shining on the upper left corner of the awning.

FX/SFX: Aside from the fade-in and fade-out, it's a still logo.

Music: A six-note synthesized flute piece with what sounds like a calliope in the background, similar to carnival music.

Availability: Ultra rare; has only turned up on a Goodtimes Home Video release of The Biggest Dinosaurs.

3rd Logo (1999-2006, 2009)
