'''Logo:''' On a black background, the 1975 logo plays, without the "A" and "PRODUCTION" above and below the now-white "ran{{small|K}}in bass" words, respectively. The word "''{{color|skyblue|animated}}''" in a script-like font flashes and appears. The words "{{color|skyblue|entertainment from}}" then slides in. We then cut to a sped-up version of the [[Telepictures Productions|Telepictures]] "Linecoaster" logo. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, the 1975 logo plays, without the "A" and "PRODUCTION" above and below the now-white "ran{{small|K}}in bass" words, respectively.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A jazzy drum break is heard, followed by an abridged version of Cheetara's leitmotif (a triumphant horn fanfare, with a funk flair to it). When the Telepictures logo appears, we hear an abridged version of the drum roll and a ding from the said logo. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A jazzy drum break is heard, followed by an abridged version of Cheetara's leitmotif (a triumphant horn fanfare, with a funk flair to it).

* On their last production before they closed, ''Santa, Baby!'', the logo is much smaller and flatter, flipped around vertically at the beginning of the logo, and has the line animation play out much slower. It also doesn't follow up with the transition animation. There is a video of this variant from the YouTuber Broken Saw that can be viewed [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re7hOe36n1A here]. | * On their last production before they closed, ''Santa, Baby!'', the logo is much smaller and flatter, flipped around vertically at the beginning of the logo, and has the line animation play out much slower.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A bouncy, synthesized oboe theme (composed by Bernard Hoffer), with a "spring" sound effect when the line morphs into the "Animated Entertainment" theme. On the first season of ''ThunderCats'', the music segues into a custom fanfare for the Telepictures logo (also by Hoffer) and from 1986 onward, it segues into the end of the Lorimar-Telepictures theme when the logo appears. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A bouncy, synthesized oboe theme (composed by Bernard Hoffer), with a "spring" sound effect when the line morphs into the "Animated Entertainment" theme.
