Behind them is a larger {{Font color|lightpink|light pink}} diamond that's rotating clockwise. In front of the diamonds, we see the Game Show Network logo's tiles spinning with the {{Font color|limegreen|green}} ball jumping down, sliding off the screen, flying off to the right and returning from the left, bringing in the word "'''''ORIGINALS'''''" and bouncing on it to return to the logo.

'''Nicknames''': "GSN Machine", "GSN Block", "GSN Factory"
 
'''Logo:''' On a {{Font color|deepskyblue|light blue}} background, we see the GSN logo from the time. Then, the logo opens up to reveal a {{Font color|deepskyblue|blue}} factory with gears and a bunch of {{Font color|limegreen|green}} blocks on a conveyor belt. A bunch of presses with a letter cut out on each of them land on the {{Font color|limegreen|green}} blocks to form the letters of "'''ORIGINAL'''". We cut back to the GSN logo. The logo opens up, and "'''ORIGINAL'''" jumps out of the logo, flips, and lands on the logo.
 
'''Trivia:''' Along with the other IDs, this was done at V12.
 
'''Variant:''' There is a variant where the word "'''ORIGINAL'''" doesn't flip once it jumps out of the logo.
 
'''FX/SFX:''' The movement of the gears, blocks, and the presses, as well as the GSN logo. Pretty good CGI for the time.
 
'''Music/Sounds:''' Factory noises are heard throughout. When "ORIGINAL" jumps out, we hear a whoosh, creaking, and a one-note tune. A female announcer says "GSN" with another female announcer saying "nya-la".
 
'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' Sometimes, the one-note tune isn't heard and there is no female announcer.
 
'''Availability:''' Extinct. This was last seen before original programming such as ''Whammy! The All New Press Your Luck'', ''Russian Roulette'', ''Extreme Dodgeball'', and ''Video Game Invasion: The History of a Global Obsession''.
 
'''Editor's Note:''' None.

'''Variant:''' The logo can vary in its color scheme.
 
'''FX/SFX:''' The squares flipping.
 
'''Music/Sounds:''' A shortened version of the network ID theme.

'''Editor's Note:''' None.
