'''Logo:''' We see the end of the 1994-2010 Fox logo, with neither the News Corporation byline nor the registered trademark symbol. We then zoom out, to reveal that it is in a box. The box is in a larger box colored cadet blue, and next to the Fox logo box are the words "{{font|Times New Roman|{{color|gold|'''20th Century Fox Home Entertainment'''}}}}" in Latin 725 font, spanning across three lines.

'''Later Variant:''' This logo was enhanced in 2003; the box is now grey with a gold border, the company name set in ITC Garamond, and the Fox logo is the filmed version, and has the News Corporation byline and registered trademark symbol.


'''Trivia:''' The version of the Fox logo used in this logo is an unedited render of the logo from Flip Your Lid Animation, before it was transferred to film.

*Appears on TCFHE releases from the mid-90s through the mid-2000s as well as the earliest [[MGM Home Entertainment]] releases by the company from early-mid 2006.
* Original version (1995-2008, 2011):
*Outside the USA and Canada, this logo can be seen on video releases and television broadcasts of ''Casper: A Spirited Beginning'' and ''Casper Meets Wendy''. It made a surprise appearance on the UK VHS release of ''Goosebumps: The Haunted Mask'' after the 1995 international version of the TCFHE logo and before the 1995 Fox Video logo. Also appears before the rare CBS/Fox Video logo on the UK VHS release of ''FernGully 2: The Magical Rescue'' and the PAL DVD of ''Bartok the Magnificent'' (at the start of the film, the 2nd international TCFHE logo is seen before the menu).

*While this began to be phased out starting in late 2004 on DVDs in favor of the next logo, this version was more common until mid-2006; especially on full-screen releases which did not have a version of the next logo made until later (one such example being ''Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith''). The last titles to have this logo were ''American Dad! Volume 3'' and the 2008 DVD release of ''Babes in Toyland'' (1934), which were the last Fox and MGM releases to feature the logo, respectively.

*The version without the fade-out appears on VHS and LaserDiscs of the 1995 ''Star Wars Trilogy''. This variant can also be seen on some home video releases by the company. Although the variant was rarely used after its debut year, it appeared on the 1999 VHS reprint of ''The Towering Inferno'' (the DVD used the fade-out). It is unknown which DVDs used this version as most used the standard version with the fade-out.

''Rusty: A Dog's Tale''), and ''Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones'', while this version without the fade out appeared on the original VHS release of ''Nine Months''.

Volume 4'', ''Family Guy: Volume Seven'', ''Seth MacFarlane's Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy'', and the twelfth season of ''The Simpsons'', all released in 2009 (this can be chalked up to the fact that season five has a 2008 copyright on the case and discs).

*It also makes a surprise appearance at the start of ''Thumbelina'' on its Australian DVD release (and later early 2010's reprint), possibly due to plastering the [[Warner Bros. Family Entertainment]] logo (Warner Bros. Family Entertainment originally distributed ''Thumbelina'' from 1994 to sometime in the early 2000's).

'''Legacy:''' This is seen as a downgrade from the previous logo, mainly because the logo is set in the same frame rate as the filmed Fox logo, and the zooming is significantly choppier as a result.

'''Logo:''' Same as the final 20th Century Fox logo except that, in the end, the camera pans back farther than usual to reveal the stacked words "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" on the right of the Fox structure with "HOME" set in Neutraface No. 2, an extra searchlight can be seen on the left of the structure, and more palm trees were added. Once the logo is fully revealed, the News Corporation byline fades in at the bottom of the screen (on pre-2013 releases). The registered trademark sign fades in as well.

This also applies to any MGM releases from any other distributors, which use their respective logos instead of this due to having absolutely no TCFHE logo at all on the discs or labels. This also does not appear on reissues of older MGM DVD releases from around 2001-2006, as they use the MGM DVD logo on its own.
