* ''The Secret Life of Pets'' (prototype): Stuart is seen teasing a puppy by squeaking and pretending to throw a ball. 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'' (prototype): Stuart is seen teasing a puppy by squeaking and pretending to throw a ball.

* ''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. Just then, the text "MIN" and "ION" (perhaps not coincidentally, the word "Minion") turns on like a large neon sign 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 and shouts the company name twice before squeeing excitedly. | * ''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 kazoo, then sings some "la" notes. He then sings the company name and Mel and Stuart sing with him in the form of a barbershop quartet, whilst raising their arms in the air, and their singing makes the text glow. Bob, who doesn't get the idea, sings the name in a crazy off-key yell. 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. | ||
** On the trailers and TV spots, we see Stuart, Kevin and Bob in the center laughing. Also, they looked pasted on the template rather than added in. | ** On the trailers and TV spots, we see Stuart, Kevin and Bob in the center laughing.
