He continues until a group of dogs come in, and one of them barks at Stuart. Stuart then realizes he is being mean to the puppy and throws the ball, chuckling nervously, and the puppy goes after it, but the dogs instead start chasing him offscreen. Then, a chihuahua runs after the group of dogs, barking until it goes offscreen. This variant did not make it into the final movie for unknown reasons. This is also the first and so far only variant in which a minion does not look at the camera. | ||
* ''The Secret Life of Pets'' (final version) and ''Despicable Me 2'' ([[NBC National IDs|NBC]] airing): The text is nowhere to be seen. Bob walks in from the right, scatting a tune. After a little while, the text "MIN" and "ION" (perhaps not coincidentally, the word "Minion") turns on and flashes briefly, while the light above the "I" in "MIN" glows. The rest of the text turns on the same way. Bob looks at the text and is amazed. He turns to the audience excitedly, shouts the company name twice, and squees. | * ''The Secret Life of Pets'' (final version) and ''Despicable Me 2'' ([[NBC National IDs|NBC]] airing): The text is nowhere to be seen.

Kevin plays a harmonica, then sings "la" notes. He then sings the company name and Mel and Stuart join as the chorus, whilst raising their arms in the air, and their singing makes the text glow. Bob, who doesn't get the idea, screams the name with a crazy look. His yell gives the text too much glow, causing "MIN" and "ION" to lose power and turn off. Bob sees what he did, looks at the screen, and says "Whoops!" as the other minions stare in disappointment. | ||

As Mel begins to say the name, he stops to question the fart gun, to which Bob sprays gas, causing Mel to faint in disgust. Bob then says the name and chuckles. The unconscious Mel farts on Bob and he shakes his hand in disgust. | ||

Carl is seen in the distance, blowing a party blower to Kevin, who is close to the camera and annoyed by the blower. He then grabs the end of the blower, pulls Carl towards him and shoves him off-screen. They move out, the text drops down to the centre and Bob is heard saying the company name. | ||

Stuart and Kevin are seen wearing Christmas outfits as they play with tambourines, while Bob plays in the snow, shouting out the company name as he catches snowflakes on his tongue. This is also seen at the start of the ''Minions Holiday Special''. | ||
* ''The Grinch'' (the film itself): Bob stands on the right side of the screen, waves a sparkler and says the company name. Suddenly, Snowball the rabbit from ''The Secret Life of Pets'' (voiced by Kevin Hart) drops down from the top of the screen and yells the name. He then sets off some pyrotechnics over the logo's stage, burning Bob's feet, while Snowball laughs maniacally. The pyrotechnics trigger some sprinklers, dousing the flames and covering Snowball in water, much to his dismay. Bob gives his sparkler to Snowball, making him feel better, and they look at the camera. The text then brightens up the screen to start the movie. | * ''The Grinch'' (the film itself): Bob stands on the right side of the screen, waves a sparkler and says the company name.
