'''Availability:''' Seen on all ABC Kids VHS tapes from mid 1993 to around 1997, some tapes that have this logo are ''Spot's Magical Christmas'', ''Johnson and Friends: Dinosaur Tracks'', ''Lift-Off: E.C. and the Lift-Off Kids'', ''Postman Pat and the Barometer'', the 1997 VHS of ''The Wiggles: Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas'' (the 1999 print uses the previous logo), the 1993 re-print of ''Play School: All Together Show & At the Zoo'', the 1997 VHS of ''The Wiggles: Wiggledance!'' (the 1998 print plasters this with the next logo instead), and ''Play School: On the Move''. The pre-Late 1994 variant also appears during the closing of the 1994 VHS tape of ''Airbourne'' (said closing mainly composed of kids VHS promos) despite being a Roadshow release. This promo is retained on the 1997 reprint of ''Bananas in Pyjamas: Hiccups'' and the 2000 reprints of ''The Wiggles: Big Red Car'' and ''The Wiggles: Wake Up Jeff!'' as their masters were recycled from their original 1993, and 1995 and 1996 releases, respectively. Some of the first tapes to use the logo are ''Play School: Out and About'' and ''Wiggle Time!''. On the 2000s re-issues of ''Spot Goes to the Farm'' and ''Spot Goes to a Party'', this logo is replaced by the next one. This does not appear on ''Blinky Bill and the Winter's Tale'', the 1993 VHS tape of ''Peter Ustinov Reads the Orchestra'', the 1994 VHS tape of ''Escape from Jupiter'' and the 1995 VHS tapes of ''Art Attack'' and ''Art Attack 2'' as they use a normal ABC Video promo instead. One of the last tapes to use the pre late-1994 variant was ''ABC for Kids: Lots of Other Great Songs''. Some of the last tapes to use this logo were ''Arthur's Eyes'' and ''Arthur's Pet Business''.

'''Legacy:''' A favourite amongst Australian kid show fans. The additional clip from ''Lift Off'' at the end of the promo may get to some, due to the Backsacks finishing singing the "Echo Song".
