'''Logo:''' We see the 1990-1997 Universal Pictures logo proceeding as normal, but without "UNIVERSAL" coming from behind and circling the globe. While the globe zooms out and moves into its center position, a cartoon version of the biplane from the 1920s Universal logo (which is a yellow-orange biplane with a red face and light blue wheels; nicknamed Jetty), appears from behind the globe and flies around it and turning through with his tongue sticking out. He leaves a trail of smoke, which turns into "UNIVERSAL", in its similar corporate font from the 1990-1997 Universal Pictures logo with its gradient texture on it and is stretched up vertically (with the "R" backwards, reading "UNIVEЯSAL"). Then, the plane enters the bottom of the globe and flies through it, but doesn't turn this time, leaving another trail of smoke, which also turns into "CARTOON STUDIOS" in rainbow colors and in a Mickey Mouse-like font (named Ashley Crawford). As the globe and the words are in position, Jetty comes into the middle of the globe and shockingly stops. Then, he takes a few steps back and realizes the "R" in "UNIVERSAL" is backwards, and giggles for a bit, and flips it around, causing it to spin briefly and making it in the correct way. Then, he floats and looks at the audience and happily looks at the "R" before he floats down, then he looks at us again. | '''Logo:''' We see the 1990-1997 [[Universal Pictures]] logo proceeding as normal, but without "UNIVERSAL" coming from behind and circling the globe.

'''Trivia:''' The print artwork logo (seen on ''Opus 'n Bill in A Wish for Wings That Work'' and on covers of VHS and DVD releases) was designed and illustrated by Eric Semones and the animation of the biplane and the company's name (used over the footage of the globe from the 1990 Universal Pictures logo) were done by Spaff Animation Incorporated. The part where the plane flies through the globe making the trail of smoke, which turns into the words, is a throwback to the 1923 and 1927 Universal Pictures logos. | '''Trivia:''' The print artwork logo (seen on ''Opus 'n Bill in A Wish for Wings That Work'' and on covers of VHS and DVD releases) was designed and illustrated by Eric Semones and the animation of the biplane and the company's name (used over the footage of the globe from the 1990 Universal Pictures logo) were done by Spaff Animation Incorporated.

'''Editor's Note:''' It's just like the 1997 Universal Television logo of the time and was used in few films. Nothing too special about that. | '''Editor's Note:''' It's just like the 1997 Universal Television logo of the time and was used in few films. Nothing too special about that. | ||
