(1985-2006)
Nickname: "Rainbow Castle"
Logo: It's the same logo as Walt Disney Television and Buena Vista Television, but it reads "Distributed by Buena Vista International, Inc." underneath the castle.
SFX: The spark flying, the text fading. Other times, it's a still logo.
Music: Same as Walt Disney Television, Buena Vista Television, or silent.

Scare Factor: Low with the chimes theme and none for the silent version.

Nickname: "Blue Castle"
Logo: Same as the Walt Disney Television logo. The logo reads either "Walt Disney Television" or "Walt Disney TeleivsionTelevision Animation" and later fades to the name "Distributed By Buena Vista International, Inc." Other times, the name just fades in with a white ball or a spark of light animating over the circle.

SFX: The name fading. Other times it's a still logo.

Turning with the castle we see "BUENA VISTA INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION" in Times New Roman underneath the castle with a Disney copyright stamp underneath. Above the castle has the phrase "Distributed by" in Arial font.
