'''Editor's Note:''' It's certainly one of the cheesiest logos out there, with the cheap animation, tacky space background, and the "sun" looking more like a fizzing tablet. The logo is also somewhat ominous with the somewhat unique and strange animation and the cracking and popping sounds (earning its nickname "Soda Pop"). Still, it's a favorite to those who grew up with it. It is also worth noting that it's one of (or possibly) the first logos that used "Home Entertainment" when most companies still used "Home Video". | '''Editor's Note:''' It's certainly one of the cheesiest logos out there, with the cheap animation, tacky space background, and the "sun" looking more like a fizzing tablet.

'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' On the screener cassettes of ''Queens Logic'' and ''Bloodmoon'', an announcer says, "Here's what's new from Family Home Entertainment!" at the end. | '''Music/Sounds Variant:''' On the screener cassettes of ''Queens Logic'' and ''Bloodmoon'', an announcer says, "Here's what's new from Family Home Entertainment!" at the end. | ||
'''Availability:''' Common. Can be seen on most FHE releases from the 1990s, including later ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'' tapes (surprisingly, it appeared on 2006 and 2007 DVDs of TMNT, specifically at the end of the episodes "Plan 6 from Outer Space", "Farewell Lotus Blossom", "Michelangelo Meets Bugman" and "What's Michelangelo Good For?", probably due to VHS masters being used), the original release of ''Tom and Jerry: The Movie'' and many Rankin-Bass and Lacewood Christmas specials by FHE. It first appeared on ''The Marzipan Pig'', ''The Little Match Girl'', and two volumes of ''Widget''. One of the last tapes to use this logo was the [[Hallmark Home Entertainment]] release of ''Merlin''. The still version can be seen on ''Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer'' (earlier prints use the former logo, not still) and ''Bruno the Kid: The Last Christmas''. Surprisingly appears in full on the screener cassettes of ''Queens Logic'' and ''Bloodmoon'' before a preview for a ''Babar'' tape, as well as on the screener cassettes of ''Bad Lieutenant'' and ''Almost Blue'' before a preview for the first ten volumes of ''Robotech'' and on the screener cassette of ''Glengarry Glen Ross'' before a preview for several tapes centering on dinosaurs and dragons. This makes surprise appearances at the beginning and end of Epix.com's print of ''The Great Bear Scare'', while the Amazon Prime version has the first FHE logo. | '''Availability:''' Common.

'''Editor's Note:''' A surprisingly good follow-up to the previous logos, this is a favorite of many, thanks to its impressive use of CGI and camera. | '''Editor's Note:''' A surprisingly good follow-up to the previous logos, this is a favorite of many, thanks to its impressive use of CGI and camera. |
