Main

North American Bumpers

1st Bumper (June 26, 1981-November 1982)

Bumper: On a blue background we see the words "HERE ARE SELECTED HIGHLIGHTS FROM OTHER WALT DISNEY HOME VIDEOCASSETTES" on the left corner of the screen in yellow text.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: This was typically seen at the end of Disney films released on video at the time, either for sale or rental. In general, it's not that easy to find; it depends on the tape label, the date it was printed in (a print date is usually seen on the spine of the videotape). A few examples are the very first printing of the 1982 VHS of A Walt Disney Christmas, the 1981 VHS of Pollyanna, and the 1981 VHS of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

2nd Bumper (October 15, 1981-December 1982)

Bumper: On a black background we see the Walt Disney Home Video logo (with Sorcerer Mickey) with the words "Also available from" above; everything is colored in tealish grey and outlined in white. If you look closely, you can see the copyright date below the logo.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Same as the 1st bumper.

Legacy: The outlining in the bumper has been criticized as cheap, to say the least.

3rd Bumper (July 16, 1985-February 28, 1989)

File:BVWDCSQ.PNG

Bumper: On a black background, we see the following white clip-on texts in a plain white font.

'Clip-ons:

Coming to a Theatre near you, in the summer of 1985 (in a bold Helvetica Font)
Coming Soon (in Helvetica Narrow font)
Coming Soon from Walt Disney Home Video (in a bold Helvetica Font)
Now on Walt Disney Home Video... (in an italic Times New Roman font)
Coming Soon from Touchstone Home Video ("Touchstone Home Video" is done using their logo; the text is colored turquoise)
Coming to Theatres in October 1986 from Touchstone Films (in a condensed Futura Bold font)
And now, a preview of another blockbuster hit, from Touchstone Home Video (Seen on the 1988 VHS reissue of Tin Men, and the original 1988 VHS releases of Hello Again, D.O.A., Shoot to Kill, and Good Morning, Vietnam)
Ask your dealer about this hit title, from Touchstone Home Video (Seen on the 1988 VHS release of The Rescue and the 1989 VHS release of Big Business)
And now, a preview of another blockbuster hit. (Only seen on the 1988 VHS release of The Rescue)
A special Public Service Announcement (Only seen on the original 1987 VHS release of Outrageous Fortune and the 1988 VHS releases of Adventures in Babysitting (1987) and Can’t Buy Me Love)
Feature Presentation

Variants: The font and size varies by tape.

The "Coming Soon from Walt Disney Home Video" clip-on is displayed on a black-blue gradient background. This precedes a trailer for The Journey of Natty Gann.
On the 1986 VHS release of My Science Project, preceding a trailer for Down and Out in Beverly Hills, the "COMING SOON" text is dark blue and in quotation marks.
On several 1986 VHS releases that open with trailers for The Journey of Natty Gann and The Sword in the Stone, a bumper appears in between the trailers with reused footage from an early Disney Channel bumper featuring Sorcerer Mickey. A short musical sting from The Sorcerer's Apprentice (from Fantasia) is heard, with the 80s Disney Channel announcer, Jerry Bishop, saying "And here's what's coming soon!" over the bumper.
An early variant of the "Ask Your Video Dealer..." clip-on exists, where the text is still and instead reads "Ask your video dealer now about this hit title also from Touchstone Home Video." Grant Goodeve reads the text as usual, only his tone is different. This version was first seen on the 1988 VHS of Stakeout, the first tape to include these bumpers, and later appeared on the 1988 VHS releases of Three Men and a Baby and Adventures in Babysitting (1987).
"And now, a preview" sub-variants:
- On the 1988 VHS release of Hello Again, the text is seen in an all-caps Impact font.
- On the 1988 VHS release of Shoot to Kill, a still version of the bumper is seen in between the two trailers on the tape.
Feature Presentation sub-variants:
- On the 1988 VHS releases of Can't Buy Me Love and Hello Again, the letters are in a different font and italicized.
- On the 1988 VHS release of Adventures in Babysitting (1987), a special animated variant is used. The text is the same as the 1st variant, but in gold. It then rotates around once, revealing it’s interlocked with the film's logo, and thus rests on that. The logo then shines and flies away into the top left corner of the screen.
- On the 1988 Canadian French VHS release of Shoot to Kill, the text instead reads “Notre Presentation de long metrage”.
One variant of the “A special public service announcement“ clip-on exists, where the background is orange red and the text is bolder. This version is only seen on the original 1987 VHS release of Outrageous Fortune.

FX/SFX: Most clip-ons simply fade in and out. The "And now, a preview... Touchstone Home Video" clip-ons scroll up, and the Feature Presentation clip-on variant from Adventures in Babysitting has its own animation described above.

Music/Sounds: Originally silent, until 1988, when it just had an announcer saying the following for two of the clip-ons:

Ask Your Video Dealer: "Ask your video dealer now about this hit title, also from Touchstone Home Video." Voiced by Grant Goodeve, later credited as the voice of the Engineer in the video game Team Fortress 2.
Feature Presentation: "And now, our feature presentation from Touchstone Home Video." Voiced by Brian Cummings, well-known Disney bumper/commercial/trailer announcer and later credited as the voices of Doofus Drake in DuckTales (1987), Ranger McRanger in ChalkZone, and Sokolov in Metal Gear Solid 3.

Music/Sounds Variants (FP only):

The 1988 VHS release of Good Morning, Vietnam had the announcer saying, "And now for our feature presentation, Good Morning, Vietnam."
On the 1988-89 VHS releases of Three Men and a Baby, Shoot to Kill, The Rescue, and Big Business, the announcer says, "And now, our feature presentation."
On the 1988 VHS reissue of Tough Guys, a rock-and-roll tune plays, and the announcer says, "And now, from Touchstone Home Video, our feature presentation, Tough Guys."
On the 1988 VHS releases of Hello Again and Can't Buy Me Love, the song "Real Wild Child" by Iggy Pop, notably featured in the preceding trailer for Adventures in Babysitting, is heard in the background.
- Similar audio is used for the animated variation on the 1988 VHS release of Adventures in Babysitting (1987), except the excerpt from the previously mentioned song is slightly muffled and the announcer adds, "...Adventures in Babysitting."
The 1988 VHS re-release of Outrageous Fortune has the announcer adding, "...Outrageous Fortune."
On the 1988 Canadian French VHS release of Shoot to Kill, a French announcer reads the text.

Availability: Rare. Initially used on Walt Disney Home Video releases, they were relegated to use on Touchstone Home Video tapes in 1986.

The "Summer of 1985" clip-on is seen on early printings of the 1985 Classics video release of Pinocchio (1940), following the theatrical trailer for The Black Cauldron.
The original "Coming Soon" version is seen on the original video releases of Return to Oz, The Blue Yonder, and The Small One, all released in December 1985.
The "Coming Soon from Walt Disney Home Video" and Sorcerer Mickey clip-ons appear on VHS releases from March 1986, including The Living Desert, Charley and the Angel, Lots of Luck, The Ugly Dachshund, and the first six volumes of Wonderful World of Disney Double Feature.
The "Now on Walt Disney Home Video..." clip-on can be spotted on VHS releases from April 1986, including Return from Witch Mountain, The Horse Without a Head, The Flight of the Grey Wolf, Elfego Baca: Six Gun Law, and Almost Angels.
The "Coming Soon from Touchstone Home Video" variant can be seen on VHS releases of Wildside.
The "Coming to Theatres in October 1986 from Touchstone Films" variant appears on the 1986 VHS releases of Down and Out in Beverly Hills and Off Beat, preceding a trailer for Tough Guys.
The later versions of the clip-ons, with the voiceover, debuted on the 1988 VHS reissues of Tin Men and Outrageous Fortune, making their first new release appearance on the 1988 VHS of Stakeout. The entire clip-on in general, last appeared on the 1989 VHS of Big Business.

Legacy: This is the very first Disney ID to contain multiple clip-ons, introduced years before it became a standard. Excluding the Sorcerer Mickey clip-on, this is the last known Disney ID of any kind in U.S./Canada that didn't feature any voiceover on all of the bumpers until 2006. On the "Ask Your Video Dealer" variant, there's a period, but the comma is gone. These clip-ons look very plain compared to the more elaborate ones that came later; in fairness, these were the first forays into consistent clip-on branding for Disney, and they certainly got better over time. Also, the appearance of the FP text is awkwardly delayed on select VHS copies of Good Morning, Vietnam to make room for the announcer on it; had the FP text been on screen slightly longer, it would've been fine.

4th Bumper (April 18, 1989-May 27, 1992; September 18, 1992)

Nickname: "Fly-In"

Bumper: On a black background, we see either one of the clip-ons below swiftly appear in a Clarendon font depending on the bumper. It may either fly up and down, respectively, and then shine, fly up and then shine, fly in from the right and shine, or it may simply shine while otherwise being still.

Clip-ons:

Also from Touchstone (First appeared on the original 1989 VHS release of Beaches; last appeared on the 1991 VHS releases of Mr. Destiny and Three Men and a Little Lady.)
Coming to Theatres (Seen on the 1990 Classics VHS release of Peter Pan (1953), and the original 1991 VHS release of White Fang.)
Coming on Videocassette (First seen on the 1991 VHS release of Mr. Destiny as a still image; the fully animated version was first seen on the 1991 VHS release of Run and last seen on the 1992 VHS release of So Dear to My Heart.)
Now on Videocassette (Seen on the 1990 Classics VHS release of Peter Pan (1953) and the original 1991 VHS release of Shipwrecked as a still image.)
Also on Video (Seen on the 1991 Hollywood Pictures VHS releases of The Marrying Man, One Good Cop, and V.I. Warshawski.)
Also from Walt Disney Home Video (This was seen on the 1991 VHS release of Three Men and a Little Lady)
Coming this March to Videocassette (This was seen on the 1992 demo tapes of Paradise and The Doctor.)
Stay Tooned (This always preceded a trailer for Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and was seen on the original 1989 VHS releases of Cocktail, Heartbreak Hotel, Beaches, Ernest Saves Christmas, and Three Fugitives.)
Behind the Scenes (Exclusively seen on the 1989 VHS of Cocktail before a music video preview for Heartbreak Hotel.)
Feature Presentation

Trivia: Most of these clip-ons were relegated exclusively to Touchstone and Hollywood Pictures VHS releases.

Variants:

The color scheme varies for each clip-on.
On the 1991 VHS release of Mr. Destiny, only the sparkling/shining animation on the "Coming on Videocassette" clip-on is shown. This animation also occurs, but from right to left, on the “Now On Videocassette” clip-on on the original 1991 VHS release of Shipwrecked.
On a 1991 promotional VHS release featuring clips from both Run and Shipwrecked, the clip-on fades out much earlier and slower than usual.
On the original 1992 VHS releases of Deceived, Billy Bathgate, and Truly, Madly, Deeply, the "Coming on Videocassette" clip-on cuts in a second later than usual.
On the "Also from Touchstone" clip-on, the text "Touchstone" shines differently and doesn't have any sparkle effects.
On the "Also on Video" clip-on, the text is in a Lydian font. There are no sparkle effects on it.
On the "Also from Walt Disney Home Video" clip-on, we see the logo with the words "Also from" on top, connecting at a fast speed.
On the "Behind the Scenes" and "Feature Presentation" clip-ons, the background is grey and the letters zoom in one by one from top to bottom instead of flying in. There are also no sparkle effects on them.
On the "Feature Presentation" clip-on, the text is in gold.
Starting with the 1992 demo VHS releases of Deceived and Billy Bathgate and ending with the 1992 VHS of Truly, Madly, Deeply, Touchstone VHS tapes would have a variation of the "Feature Presentation" clip-on using the normal black background and orange text.
On the "Stay Tooned" clip-on, it is on a different grey background, the text is in a gold-red gradient Balloon font, and instead of shining, a flash forms behind them, and spawns a shadow.
On the "Coming this March to Videocassette" clip-on, the text zooms in from the right top corner instead of connecting, and the text is more two dimensional. The text "shines" once centered on the screen.

FX/SFX: The animation of the clip-on.

Music/Sounds: The first eight notes of "Great Ovation" by Steve Gray from the Bruton Music library, a triumphant tune meant to invoke an award show atmosphere noteworthy for its prominence on many Disney clip-ons. An announcer (Brian Cummings, the same announcer as the previous two clip-ons), is heard saying one of the following:

Coming to Theatres: "Coming to theaters from Walt Disney Pictures."
Coming on Videocassette: "Coming soon on videocassette!"
Now on Videocassette: "Don't miss this timeless Disney classic, now on videocassette."
Also from Touchstone: "Ask your video dealer about these hit titles, also from Touchstone Home Video."
Also on Video: "Ask your video dealer about these hit titles!"
Also from Walt Disney Home Video: "Coming, from Walt Disney Home Video."
Coming this March to Videocassette: "Coming from Touchstone Home Video."
Stay Tooned: "Stay tuned for the most fun ever on home video!"
Behind the Scenes: "Behind the scenes with Touchstone Home Video's Heartbreak Hotel."
Feature Presentation: "And now for our feature presentation."

Music/Sounds Variants:

The version of the intro of “Great Ovation” used for the first two editions of the “Also from Touchstone” clip-on along with the “Stay Tooned” and “Feature Presentation” clip-ons sounds more intense and fades out earlier than normal. This is because the intro used for these clip-ons was sampled from the original version of the fanfare, while other clip-ons used a slightly modified version of the intro.
Coming to Theatres: On the 1991 VHS of White Fang, Brian Cummings says, "Coming to theaters soon."
Coming on Videocassette:
- The variant on the 1991 VHS of Mr. Destiny that lacks the fly-in animation features Brian Cummings quickly saying "Coming on videocassette."
- On the 1991 VHS release of White Fang, Brian Cummings quickly says, "Coming from Walt Disney Home Video."
- On the 1991 VHS release of What About Bob?, Brian Cummings enthusiastically says, "Coming on videocassette!"
- On an unknown demo tape from 1991, Brian Cummings says “Coming soon on videocassette.” in a calmer tone of voice than usual. Along with its original energetic counterpart, this voiceover was reused for the 1992-94 clip-ons.
- On the demo VHS releases of Paradise and The Doctor, an edited version of the audio from the second version of the "Also from Touchstone" clip-on is used where Brian Cummings only says "Also from Touchstone Home Video."
- On the original VHS releases of Paradise and The Doctor, as well as the demo VHS releases of Deceived and Billy Bathgate, Brian Cummings says, "Coming from Touchstone Home Video."
- The 1992 VHS release of So Dear to My Heart has the shortened version of "Great Ovation" heard on other bumpers from the time, with Mark Elliot saying, "Coming soon, from Walt Disney Home Video." This bumper crossfades into the start of the Beauty and the Beast (1991) video trailer.
Now on Videocassette: On the 1991 VHS release of Shipwrecked, Brian Cummings enthusiastically says, "Now on videocassette!"
Also from Touchstone:
- On 1989 Touchstone Home Video tapes, a different announcer, Tom Kane, later credited as the voices of Monkey Fist in Kim Possible and Yoda in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, says, "Ask your video dealer about this hit title, also from Touchstone Home Video". As this version of the bumper only referred to one preview, this bumper appeared twice on the 1989 VHS releases of Three Fugitives and Turner & Hooch. The last tape to use this variation was the 1990 VHS of New York Stories, and the first tape to use the 1990 variation was the 1990 VHS of An Innocent Man.
- On the 1991 VHS releases of Mr. Destiny and Three Men and a Little Lady, Brian Cummings says, "Ask your video dealer about this hit title...from Touchstone Home Video".
- On the 1990 Laserdisc release of Dead Poets Society, no announcer is heard.
On the "Behind the Scenes" clip-on, a more bombastic version of "Great Ovation" sourced from the last few seconds of the track is heard instead.
The "Also from Walt Disney Home Video" clip-on used a sample of a different, majestic-sounding fanfare ("Pageantry (6)" as composed by Leslie Pearson, from the Bruton Music Library).

Availability: Rare, as it was only used for three years.

It was first seen on the original 1989 VHS printing of Cocktail, and appeared on all subsequent titles from Touchstone and Hollywood Pictures Home Video until the 1992 VHS release of Truly, Madly, Deeply; however, the "Coming on Videocassette" clip-on made one last appearance on the 1992 VHS release of So Dear to My Heart.
The "Feature Presentation" clip-on is relatively more common, as it was used on Touchstone, Hollywood Pictures, and Disney VHS releases, including the 1991 VHS releases of Lantern Hill, Looking for Miracles, Shipwrecked, White Fang, Robin Hood (1973), The Rescuers Down Under, DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp, and The Brave Little Toaster, and the 1992 VHS releases of Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken and The Rocketeer (1991).
This was preserved on numerous Touchstone Home Video VHS reissues that used the below two clip-ons described below well into the late 1990s, even with a later FBI warning screen replacing an earlier one.
Also found on VHS releases from Filipino VHS distributor Regal Home Video, such as Aswang.
Surprisingly, the "Also from Touchstone" and "Feature Presentation" clip-ons have also appeared on the 1990 Laserdisc release of Dead Poets Society.

Legacy: The sudden zooming of the words and the announcer might catch some off guard, and the font of the text may spook some, but it's fairly tame.

5th Bumper (1989-2000)

American Spanish clip-ons

Canadian French clip-ons

Bumper: On a black background, we see one of the following clip ons in a gradient gray Helvetica font and with a shadow-effect applied to it:

American Spanish clip-ons:

Ahora en video
Próximamente en Video
Atracción Principal

Canadian French clip-ons::

Bientôt disponible sur videoocassette
Maintenant disponsible sur videocassette
Notre programme principal

Variants:

On the Canadian French VHS release of Aladdin (1992) and the European French SECAM VHS release of Hocus Pocus, the text is in Cooper Black font with the 1986 Walt Disney Home Video logo underneath it which looks slightly similar to the "Now You Can Own These Hit Titles" bumper from 1992. An unknown announcer is heard saying, "Bientôt disponible sur vidéocassette de Walt Disney Home Video." while the first eight notes of "Great Ovation" play.
On the Canadian French VHS release of Pocahontas II: Journey to the New World, the text is in a different font.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Just the first eight notes of "Great Ovation" without a voiceover.

Availability: Common.

The American Spanish clip-ons can be found on U.S. Spanish Disney-associated videocassettes of the period, including the U.S. Spanish VHS releases of Disney films like The Aristocats, Toy Story, and The Fox and the Hound as well as the Canta con Nosotros (Sing Along Songs) series.
The Canadian French clip-ons appear on Canadian French Disney-associated videocassettes of the period such as Aladdin (1992) and Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World.

Legacy: The "shadow" effect applied to the text doesn't really work on a black background, and the ID overall looks very plain and unprofessional. Also, the dark background and the sudden fanfare might get to some viewers. The lack of an announcer may also startle viewers who are used to the announcers in the domestic IDs.

6rd Bumper (February 6, 1991-September 18, 1992)

Bumper: Just the 1986-2001 Walt Disney Home Video logo, appearing in full or short (starting from the spark writing the words "WALT DiSNEY" and forming the logo).

Variants:

On the 1991 VHS releases of Lantern Hill and Looking for Miracles, the variant of the 1986 logo where "presents" fades in below the logo is used, starting as the spark appears on screen. The bumper crossfades to the home video trailer for Looking for Miracles (Lantern Hill) or Lantern Hill (Looking for Miracles).
On the 1992 VHS releases of So Dear to My Heart and The Rescuers, the logo is seen already formed and shines a few times.

FX/SFX: Same as the 1986-2001 Walt Disney Home Video logo.

Music/Sounds: Same as the 1986-2001 Walt Disney Home Video logo, but with Brian Cummings slowly saying "Coming from Walt Disney Home Video".

Music/Sounds Variants:

The early 1991 variant from Lantern Hill and Looking for Miracles features Brian Cummings saying "New, from Walt Disney Home Video!" over the music as the "presents" text fades in.
On the 1992 variant, a shortened version of the introduction to "Great Ovation" is heard. Mark Elliott says "Now available on videocassette!" (So Dear to My Heart) or "And available now on videocassette..." (The Rescuers).

Availability: Rare. First seen on the 1991 VHS releases of Lantern Hill and Looking for Miracles, the short version is seen on the 1991 Classics VHS release of The Jungle Book (1967), and the full version is seen on the 1991-92 VHS releases of DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp and Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken.

7th Bumper (May 3, 1991) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the words "COMING TO THEATERS FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES" in white. "COMING TO THEATERS" and "WALT DISNEY PICTURES" are above and below "FROM" respectively. This was shown after a preview for Beauty and the Beast.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Mark Elliot announcing "Coming to theaters from Walt Disney Pictures."

Availability: Can only be seen on the Walt Disney Classics 1991 print of The Jungle Book.

8th Bumper (September 11, 1991-July 17, 1992)

Bumper: On a blue-black gradient background, the text “NOW AVAILABLE ON HOME VIDEO” in a golden-white gradient, narrow western font (the same font used for the Guns N Roses logo) is shown in the center of the screen. This is the first screen seen in the trailer for Walt Disney's Studio Film Collection.

Trivia: Unlike other IDs, this one was displayed during the first scene of a home video collection trailer, instead of after.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The first eight bars of an electric guitar/synth/jazz jingle, composed exclusively for the trailer for Walt Disney’s Studio Film Collection.

Availability: Seen at the beginning of the 1991-92 Walt Disney’s Studio Film Collection VHS releases of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Candleshoe, In Search of the Castaways, The Love Bug (1968), The Apple Dumpling Gang, Kidnapped, The Story of Robin Hood and His Merrie Men, Old Yeller, The Parent Trap (1961), Freaky Friday (1976), The Three Lives of Thomasina, Treasure Island (1950), and Darby O'Gill and the Little People.

9th Bumper (April 10, 1992-August 17, 1999)

Nicknames: "Lilac", "Handwriting", "Fancy Writing"

Bumper: On a lilac blue gradient background, we see one of the clip-ons below in the Laser LET font.

Clip-ons:

Coming to Videocassette
Coming Soon to Videocassette (This can be found on most copies of the 1995 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Lion King (1994); very early printings use the above clip-on)
Coming to Home Video (This can be found on the 1992 Classics releases of The Rescuers and Beauty and the Beast (1991))
Coming to Home Video/Coming on Videocassette this Summer (This can be found on the 1992 Classics release of 101 Dalmatians (1961); very early printings don't have this or the below bumper)
Coming this Fall to Home Video (This can be found on the 1992 Classics releases of 101 Dalmatians (1961) and The Great Mouse Detective)
Coming Only to Theatres this 1992 Holiday Season (This can be found on the 1992 Classics releases of 101 Dalmatians (1961) and Beauty and the Beast (1991))
Now on Home Video (This can be found on the 1992 Classics release of Beauty and the Beast (1991))
Now on Videocassette (This can be found on 1995 printings of the 1994 Masterpiece Collection VHS tapes; earlier copies contain the blue “Now Available on Videocassette” clip-on described below)
Special Previews after our feature from Walt Disney Home Video (This can be found on printings of the 1992 Classics VHS release of Beauty and the Beast (1991) from before July 1992)
Feature Presentation

Trivia:

On VHS printings of Beauty and the Beast (1991) from May to Early July 1992, the "Special Previews" clip-on is shown (Side Note: The early copies from Late May to Early-Mid June, contains two home video previews for the Classics release of Pinocchio (1940) and 101 Dalmatians (1961) after the movie is over. On the middle copies from late June to early July, it still has the same "Special Previews" bumper, but it led to the editing error of having one preview for the Classics release of 101 Dalmatians (1961) after the movie is done, as a result of the Classics release of Pinocchio (1940) being removed at the end of the movie). Subsequent VHS printings from mid-late July contain the "Special Preview" clip-on with one preview at the end of the movie and include a preview for Pinocchio (1940) before the movie and going right after the re-release preview for the cancelled 1993 theatrical re-release of Sleeping Beauty (1959), which was never removed on any printings of the tape).
These clip-ons were relegated exclusively to Disney VHS releases (mostly animated films but some live action films also), never appearing on Touchstone or other Buena Vista VHS tapes from the time period.
The audio from the "Feature Presentation" clip-on is heard at the very end of Cannibals, a track from Neil Cicierega's 2020 album Mouth Dreams.

Variants:

On several 1992 Classics VHS releases, the clip-on appears underneath the red Walt Disney script from the 1986 Walt Disney Home Video logo, in place of "HOME VIDEO".
Very rarely, a dark blue background will be used instead of the standard lilac blue gradient background. This has been spotted with the "Feature Presentation" clip-on on the 1992 Classics VHS release of The Rescuers.
The "Feature Presentation" clip-on writes itself in on the screen from left to right.
Printings of the 1992 Classics VHS release of Beauty and the Beast (1991) from after July 1992 have only one preview following the film, so as such, the "s" in "Previews" is omitted.

FX/SFX: None, or the clip-on writing itself in.

Music/Sounds: These clip-ons usually use the beginning of "Great Ovation"; some clip-ons use different music, described below. Brian Cummings or Mark Elliot announce one of the following:

Coming to Videocassette: "Coming soon to videocassette."
Coming Soon to Videocassette: "And now, coming soon to videocassette."
Coming to Home Video: "Coming from Walt Disney Home Video."
Coming to Home Video/Coming on Videocassette this Summer: "Stay tuned, for a preview of two new Disney classics coming to home video. Coming on videocassette this summer."
Coming this Fall to Home Video: "And, coming this Fall to home video..."
Coming Only to Theatres this 1992 Holiday Season: "Coming only to movie theaters this 1992 holiday season: the newest Disney animated classic, from Walt Disney Pictures."
Now on Home Video: "Now, on Walt Disney Home Video."
Now on Videocassette: "Now on videocassette!"
Special Previews after our feature from Walt Disney Home Video: "Be sure to stay tuned after our feature, for a look at more special previews, from Walt Disney Home Video."
Feature Presentation: "And now, our feature presentation."

Music/Sounds Variants:

On the "Coming to Home Video/Coming on Videocassette this Summer" clip-on, an alternate take of the 1986 Walt Disney Home Video theme is heard instead of the normal music.
On the "Coming this Fall to Home Video" clip-on and the version of the "1992 Holiday Season" clip-on from the 1992 Classics release of 101 Dalmatians (1961), only the announcer is heard.
On the "1992 Holiday Season" clip-on and the "Special Preview(s)" clip-on from the 1992 Classics release of Beauty and the Beast (1991), a triumphant horn fanfare beginning with a trumpet flourish is heard instead of the normal music ("Fanfare to the Modern Man 3" by Richard Hill, from the Bruton Music library, album BRG 09 - The Will to Win).
On the "Now on Videocassette" clip-on, the 1991 Walt Disney Home Video theme is heard instead of the normal music.
Coming to Home Video: On the 1992 Classics VHS release of The Rescuers, the shortened version of the opening to “Great Ovation” is heard and Mark Elliot says, "Coming soon, from Walt Disney Home Video.".
Special Previews after our feature from Walt Disney Home Video: On the single-preview variant, Mark Elliot says, "Be sure to stay tuned after our feature, for a look at another special preview, from Walt Disney Home Video."
Feature Presentation:
- A variant tailored for Disney tapes which open with the Walt Disney Company Intro (described in greater detail further down this page) had Beau Weaver announcing, "Thanks for joining us for this special preview. And now, our feature presentation!". The music's volume is lowered in this version. It was first used on the 1996 VHS release of Toy Story and was last used on the 1998 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of Hercules (1997).
- On the 1992 Classics VHS release of Beauty and the Beast (1991), the first note of the music is cut.
- From the 1997 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of Fun and Fancy Free through Hercules (1997), half of the first note of the 1996 variant is cut.

Availability: Rare written all over it for all clip-ons except the "Feature Presentation" clip-on.

The "Feature Presentation" clip-on first appeared on the 1992 Classics VHS release of 101 Dalmatians (1961) and was used for most of Disney's animated films at the time. It was used unaltered on all subsequent Classics and Masterpiece Collection titles, until the updated version was introduced on the 1996 VHS release of Toy Story. The original unaltered version returned on 1999 Masterpiece Collection releases that lacked a custom opening, as well as a few direct-to-video specials like The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue, which is rather odd considering that the other clip-ons used on VHS releases from this time were based off the 1994 clip-ons. The final VHS tapes to use this were Madeline: Lost in Paris, Belle’s Tales of Friendship and Hercules: Zero to Hero (the latter two were released on the same day). It was also seen on the original VHS releases of some miscellaneous films released by Disney, such as Heidi (1993), Toy Story, 101 Dalmatians (1996), The Santa Clause, Gordy, A Goofy Movie, A Bug's Life, and the two Aladdin direct-to-video sequels. It also made a surprise appearance on the 1993 demo VHS release of Pinocchio (1940).

Legacy: Fondly remembered among VHS collectors and Disney enthusiasts, these bumpers' eye-grabbing color schemes and fonts surprised some and captivated others. These were the first attempts at Disney clip-ons using consistent branding, preceding the below clip-ons by one month; however, following the 1992 Classics VHS release of Beauty and the Beast (1991), many of the clip-ons would slowly be retired, as after the mid-90s up until the bumper was officially retired, only the "Feature Presentation" clip-on was used.

Feature Presentation
Feature Program

Trivia:

Due to an editing error, the "Also Coming on Videocassette" clip-on at the end of the demo VHS of Medicine Man precedes two repeats of trailers that were already seen at the beginning of the tape.
The "A Special Message after our feature" clip-on is unique among Disney clip-ons for not using the term "preview" to refer to post-movie content. Oddly, this clip-on was used on the original 1994 VHS of Strictly Ballroom, which had two previews at the end.
The trailers for titles that were available for rental but not supposed to be properly purchased were preceded by the "Coming to Videocassette", "Coming to Video this Fall", "Now Available on Videocassette", and "Rent this New Release" clip-ons.
The trailers for titles that could be properly purchased were preceded by the "Own this Big Hit", "Look for this Hit Movie", “Hit Movies you can own", "Own your favorite Hit Movies", "Look for these Action Hits", and "Now Available to own on Videocassette" clip-ons.
These clip-ons were mostly relegated to Touchstone and Hollywood Pictures VHS releases, along with most live-action Disney VHS tapes from the time period.

Variants:

The color scheme varies for each clip-on.
On the "Feature Presentation" clip-on, the text swiftly zooms in and connects.
On early VHS tapes, most of the outlining of "Feature Presentation" is blacked out and the text is tinted in white. This variant debuted on the 1992 VHS reissues from Walt Disney Home Video and made its final appearances on the 1992 VHS release of Sister Act and the 1993-94 VHS reissues of Paradise, Deceived, Billy Bathgate, The Doctor, and Anne of Green Gables. The standard version of the clip-on debuted on the 1992 VHS release of Encino Man.
On the "Feature Program" clip-on, the text simply zooms in, and is in a different, wider, lighter Clearface font.
On the "Now Available to own on Videocassette" clip-on, the text is in a different, bolder Clarendon font.
An extremely rare sub-variant of the "Now Available on Videocassette" and "Own this Big Hit" clip-ons features a still version of the 1993 "WDHV Presents" logo, which fades to the ID.
On the 1993 VHS reissues of Paradise, Deceived, Billy Bathgate, and The Doctor, the "Hit Movies you can own" ID zooms in like the "Feature Program" ID, except at a slower pace, and the text looks thicker and includes a drop shadow.
Demo VHS tapes used a Korinna font for the clip-ons instead. Strangely, the 1994 demo VHS of The Joy Luck Club used the normal "Coming to Videocassette" variant instead.
On the "Stay Tuned for more great scenes from The Very Best Of The Ed Sullivan Show after our feature" clip-on, most of the text is light blue, and "The Very Best of The Ed Sullivan Show" is yellow.
On the “Nationally Advertised Availability April 10th” clip-on, the text is light blue.
There are two versions of the "Preview $45 Million Dollar Box Office Hit" clip-on:
- On the demo VHS releases of The Hand That Rocks the Cradle and True Identity, the text is a dark purple color.
- On the demo VHS releases of Strangers in Good Company and Ernest Scared Stupid, the text is in a lighter shade of purple.
On the "Coming from Touchstone Home Video at $19.99/$22.99 S.R.P." clip-on, the text is the same dark blue color as the text in the Touchstone Home Video logo.
The demo tapes of Super Mario Bros. (1993), Hocus Pocus and The Crow feature a special bumper with the movie's logo on top, and "Behind the Scenes" below it (in a different font depending on the tape), which cross-fades to the "Previews" clip-on.
U.K./Irish, Turkish, Croatian, and Bulgarian clip-on variants of this bumper exist, as described in the "European and Oceanian Clip-Ons" section below.
Select bumpers were used on Malaysian, Singaporean, and Filipino VHS releases up until 2001, with slight differences:
- The "Now Available on Videocassette" clip-on is silent, lacking the usual announcer and music. It also stays on screen for about three or four additional seconds before fading out.
- The "After our feature more great Previews" clip-on stays on screen for about three or four additional seconds before fading out.
"Feature Program" clip-on variants:
- On some Jim Henson Video VHS tapes and the 1995 VHS release of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, the text is seen in a white Dawncastle font, centered on a green background. This clip-on is nicknamed "Comic Sans Prototype".
  - On the 1994 VHS release of Muppet Sing-Alongs: It's Not Easy Being Green a dramatic trumpet theme plays, the words are replaced with "Stay Tuned..." and an announcer says "Stay tuned after the show to find out about more great Muppet entertainment". The words fade out and "Feature Program" fades in, then the announcer says "And now...Get ready to sing with all your favorite Muppets."
- On 1993 Disney Halloween VHS tapes, a grey-colored image of a tree, full moon, and black clouds is seen. The text "Feature Program" in an orange "Matterofact" font with a dark green border suddenly appears after about a second, and the announcer says "And now, our feature program!" before sinisterly laughing.
  - In between cartoons on these tapes, "Stay Tuned..." is seen instead of "Feature Program", and the announcer says "Stay tuned for more Halloween fun!" instead.
- On Disney's Happy Holidays with Darkwing Duck and Goofy, we see an image of a Christmas tree and the white words "Feature Program" on a starry background, similar to that of the Walt Disney Mini-Classics logo.
- On Spot VHS tapes, it takes place on a white background, and when we see Spot looking at the left side of the screen at the bottom-right corner of the screen, at the upper left-hand corner of the screen is the words "Feature Program" in black and in the Times New Roman font.
- On Fraggle Rock VHS tapes, we see multi-colored text on the bottom right of the screen with stone backgrounds and the "Fraggle Rock with the Muppets" logo on the top left.
- On most Alvin and the Chipmunks VHS tapes, the text is in a Revue font and it takes place in Dave's camera room.
- On some Alvin and the Chipmunks VHS tapes and Parachute Express: Come Sing with Us, it takes place on the Jay Ward Buena Vista background, and the text is in a different gold font.
- On Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad VHS tapes, it takes place on a background like that of the VHS opening title card, and the text "Feature Program" is in a font like that of the episode opening cards following the intro.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Unlike the previous clip-ons, the introduction of "Great Ovation" is only used on the "Coming to Videocassette", "Coming Soon on Videocassette", "Coming from Touchstone Home Video & Hollywood Pictures Home Video", "Feature Presentation", "Now Available to own on Videocassette" and "Also Coming on Videocassette" clip-ons. The two "Special Preview(s)" clip-ons used "Fanfare to the Modern Man 3" from the previous ID. All other clip-ons used either the 1991 WDHV logo theme or a slowed down version of the theme. Brian Cummings announces one of the following:

Coming to Videocassette: "Coming soon on videocassette."
Now Available on Videocassette: "Now on videocassette!"
Own Your Favorite Hit Movies: "Now you can own your favorite hit movies!"
Hit Movies You Can Own: "Look for these hit movies that you can own!"

Look for this Hit Movie: "Look for this ownable hit, from Touchstone Home Video."

Coming to Video this Fall: "Coming to video this Fall."
Rent this New Release: "Now you can rent this new release, from Walt Disney Home Video!"
Now Available to own on Videocassette: "Now available to own on videocassette." (This voiceover was later used for the 1994 clip-on version of this bumper.)
Nationally Advertised Availability April 10th: "Now on videocassette!"
Stay Tuned for more great scenes from The Very Best Of The Ed Sullivan Show After Our Feature: "Stay tuned after our feature."

Also Coming on Videocassette: "Coming on videocassette."
Coming From Touchstone Home Video at $19.99/$22.99 S.R.P.: "Coming from Touchstone Home Video." (Said slightly more enthusiastically than the previous versions of this voiceover)

Feature Presentation: "And now, our feature presentation."
Feature Program: "And now, our feature program."

Music/Sounds Variants:

On Malaysian and Singaporean VHS releases, the "Feature Presentation" clip-on is higher pitched than usual. The "Now Available on Videocassette" clip-on on these releases (as well as Filipino VHS releases) is silent.
On the "A Special Message" clip-on, only the music is heard.
On the two clip-ons from the demo release of Frankenweenie (1984) as well as the "Coming to Home Video", "Stay Tuned for other exciting Previews", "Also Coming from Touchstone Home Video & Hollywood Pictures Home Video", "Preview $45 Million Dollar Box Office Hit" and "Behind the Scenes / Previews" clip-ons, only the announcer is heard.
After the behind the scenes segment on the demo tapes of Super Mario Bros. (1993), Hocus Pocus and The Crow, the "Previews" clip-on reappears, but is silent.
'Now Available on Videocassette:
- On the 1992 VHS release of A Woman Under the Influence, the first tape to include this clip-on, the announcer says, "Ask your video dealer about these hit titles from Touchstone Home Video."
- On the 1993 Studio Film Collection releases of The Shaggy Dog (1959), That Darn Cat! (1965), Herbie Rides Again, and Escape to Witch Mountain (1975), only the music is heard.
- On later printings of the 1994 VHS release of The Three Musketeers (1993), the "Great Ovation" audio from the 1990 "Now On Videocassette" clip-on is heard instead of the 1991 WDHV theme.
- On the 1993 VHS releases of The Ernest Green Story, Perfect Harmony, Back Home, A Friendship in Vienna, Not Quite Human 2, and Still Not Quite Human, Cummings’ voiceover is calmer.
Coming to Videocassette:
- On rental releases of the 1992 VHS of Father of the Bride, the opening notes of "Great Ovation" are low-pitched and slower to accommodate the length of the voiceover. A different, deep-voiced announcer (believed to be Grant Goodeve) says, "Don't miss these exciting upcoming releases that you'll find at your favorite video rental store."
- There are three different voiceover variants for this clip-on:
  - On 1992-93 VHS tapes, Brian Cummings says "Coming soon on videocassette." in a calmer voice than usual. This version first appeared on the original 1992 VHS of The Hand That Rocks the Cradle and last appeared on the 1993 VHS of Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey.
  - Fall 1993 VHS releases have Brian Cummings saying "Coming soon on videocassette!" in a more energetic voice, reused from the 1989-92 clip-ons. Although this voiceover was first heard on the 1993 VHS release of Aspen Extreme, it began regular use on the 1993 VHS releases of Swing Kids and Ethan Frome (which were released on the same day), and was last heard on the 1993 VHS releases of Guilty as Sin and Super Mario Bros.
  - The final version of the voiceover was used from late 1993 to August 1994 (and on the Disney Princess Collection releases from 1995), and had Brian Cummings saying "Coming soon to videocassette." in a similar tone to the previous clip-on. First heard on the 1993 VHS release of A Far Off Place, the voiceover was last heard on the 1994 VHS releases of Like Water for Chocolate and Three Colors: Blue, which were also the last releases to use this clip-on.
Coming Soon on Videocassette:
- On 1994 demo tapes, Brian Cummings says, "Coming soon to videocassette."
Own this Big Hit:
- Sometimes, Brian Cummings’ voiceover is slightly delayed and he says, "Don't miss owning this big hit." Shown on the 1993 VHS re-prints of Honey I Blew Up the Kid, Newsies, Consenting Adults, and Sarafina!.
- On the 1993 VHS reissue of Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend, Cummings adds, "...from Touchstone Home Video."
- On the 1993 VHS releases of Not Quite Human, Chips the War Dog, and Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven of Bliss, Brian Cummings says, “Now you can own this big hit!”
Hit Movies you can own:
- On the 1993 VHS reprints of Paradise, Deceived, Billy Bathgate, and The Doctor, Cummings adds, "...from Touchstone Home Video!"
- On the 1993 VHS reissue of Adventures in Babysitting (1987), the introduction of "Great Ovation" is heard instead.
After our feature more great Previews:
- On the 1993 VHS release of A Stranger Among Us (the first release to use this bumper), Cummings says, "After our feature, stay tuned for more great previews."
Feature Presentation:
- This clip-on has four different voice-overs:
  - On the original 1992 VHS release of Father of the Bride (the first new release to use this bumper), Grant Goodeve says, "And now our feature presentation." on the first version of the clip-on.
  - On the 1992 VHS release of So Dear to My Heart, the same audio that accompanied the 1989 Feature Presentation clip-on is heard on the first version of the clip-on.
  - Brian Cummings says "And now, for our feature presentation!" on both versions of the clip-on; first seen on 1992 VHS reissues from Walt Disney Home Video, and last seen on the 1993-94 VHS releases of Indian Summer and Anne of Green Gables. It also appears on Malaysian, Singaporean, and Filipino VHS releases.
  - The second version of the clip-on introduced a different voiceover where Brian Cummings says "And now, our feature presentation." Although this was first heard on reprints of the 1993 VHS releases of Consenting Adults, Sarafina!, Captain Ron, The Mighty Ducks, and The Distinguished Gentleman, it didn't begin regular use until A Far Off Place later that year. Its last appearances were on 1994 VHS releases from the Family Film Collection line.

Availability: Like before, rare written all over it for a majority of the clip-ons mentioned.

The demo versions of the clip-ons first appeared on a February 1992 Buena Vista sampler demo tape, which was excerpted for the demo VHS release of Frankenweenie (1984). They were further polished a month later, on the 1992 demo VHS releases of Father of the Bride and Truly, Madly, Deeply. Starting with the 1992 demo VHS releases of Straight Talk and Newsies, all tapes with the demo clip-ons (with the exception of Sister Act) would just use the "Coming Soon on Videocassette" and "Feature Presentation" clip-ons.
The "Feature Presentation" clip-on first appeared on the 1992 WDHV VHS reprints with the "Now you can own these Hit Titles..." bumper, such as The Rocketeer, White Fang, Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Return to Snowy River, and Shipwrecked. It made its first new-release appearance on rental prints of Father of the Bride, and was last seen on the 1994 Family Film Collection VHS releases.
- In the U.K. and Ireland, this particular clip-on variant continued to be used until 2004, as described below.
The "Now Available on Videocassette" clip-on was slightly more sporadic, primarily appearing on reprints of VHS tapes like the 1994 reprint of The Three Musketeers.
The “Feature Program” clip-on made its debut on the 1992 VHS release of A Classic Christmas from The Ed Sullivan Show, and on sell-thru reprints of the 1991 VHS of Mr. Destiny (due to an editing error). It made a surprising comeback in 1998, appearing on early printings of the 1998 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Black Cauldron as well as the 1998 VHS releases of The Brave Little Toaster, Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World, The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars (despite them being full-length movies), The Spirit of Mickey, and both volumes of The Little Twins released by Buena Vista; these titles also used the Flashbang IDs.
Both the "Coming to Videocassette" and "Now Available on Videocassette" clip-ons made a surprise appearance on the 1995 Disney Princess Collection VHS releases, released almost a year after the Flashbang clip-ons were introduced. These releases also included the "Feature Program" clip-on described above.
In Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines, the "Now Available on Videocassette", "After our feature more great Previews", and "Feature Presentation" clip-ons were still used on VHS releases until 2001, such as Sleeping Beauty, Toy Story, 101 Dalmatians: Dalmatian Christmas, Disney Sing-Along Songs: Honor to Us All, and The 13th Warrior.

Legacy: Both the appearances of each clip-on and their respective musical cues are considered unsettling for some, but this set of clip-ons are otherwise tamer than they look. The earliest tapes to use these clip-ons had inconsistent fonts, music, and announcers; and even the later versions have oddities, including noticeable audio splicing on the "Stay Tuned after our feature..." clip-on, especially with the music video variant. This branding would later be used for the 1998 Walt Disney Home Video logo, which acted as a placeholder logo on lower-priority live action VHS releases.

11th Bumper (May 27, 1992; November 15, 1992)

Bumper: Just either the 1991 Hollywood Pictures Home Video logo playing at warp speed or the unaltered 1990 Buena Vista Home Video logo.

FX/SFX: The glow on the HPHV sphinx dying or the BVHV logo shining.

Music/Sounds: The music of either logo, along with Grant Goodeve saying one of the following:

Hollywood Pictures Home Video variant: “Coming from Hollywood Pictures Home Video...“ This voiceover variant uses the second half of the Hollywood Pictures Home Video logo fanfare.
Buena Vista Home Video variant: “Now, from Buena Vista Home Video...”

Availability: Extremely rare. Both variants appear on Touchstone Home Video’s 1992 rental VHS release of Father of the Bride, while the latter can also be seen on Buena Vista Home Video’s 1992 VHS release of A Classic Christmas from The Ed Sullivan Show and sell-thru reprints of the 1991 VHS of Mr. Destiny.

12th Bumper (May 27, 1992)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the white text "NOW YOU CAN OWN THESE HIT TITLES..." fade in. A few seconds later, the 1991 Walt Disney Home Video logo fades in below the text, and shines.

FX/SFX: The fade in, the shining of the text.

Music/Sounds: The first eight notes of "Great Ovation" with Brian Cummings saying, "Now you can own these hit titles, from Walt Disney Home Video.".

Some of these tapes were kept in print into the late 90s.

Editor’s Note: The black background, along with the sudden appearances of the text and WDHV logo and the voiceover, may surprise some.

13th Bumper (July 17-October 30, 1992)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the words, "Coming To Theatres For The 1992 Holiday Season From Walt Disney Pictures". This was shown after a preview for Aladdin.

Goof Troop variant: The text “COMING SOON TO VIDEO” is in cyan-light blue gradient and displayed on a purple-blue ribbony background.
Ariel’s Undersea Adventures variant: “COMING SOON TO VIDEO” is in white-yellow gradient and the ribbony background is light blue-medium blue.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds:

On the Ariel’s Undersea Adventures variant, "Under the Sea" was heard with a female announcer saying, "Coming soon to video."
On the Goof Troop variant, just the end of the Goof Troop theme song with Brian Cummings saying, "Coming soon to video."
On the "Now on Video" variant from Darkwing Duck, music from the show is used with Brian Cummings saying, "Now on video" in a relaxed tone.
On the "Now on Video" clip-on from Disney's Haunted Mansion and Happy Holidays, Brian Cummings just says, "Now on video" in an enthusiastic tone.

Availability: The "Coming Soon on Video" clip-on is seen on Ariel’s Undersea Adventures and Goof Troop on VHS. The "Now on Video" clip-on is seen on the 1993 VHS releases of Darkwing Duck: His Favorite Adventures, Disney's Haunted Mansion Collection, and Happy Holidays with Darkwing Duck and Goofy.

16th Bumper (1993-March 7, 2000)

Bumper: On a different colored background, usually with a spotlight shining down from the right top corner to the left bottom corner, we see the clip-on text in a jumbled-up cartoon-like redo of the Biondi font. The logo varies by variant.

Availability: Seen on a lot of kid-targeted Walt Disney Home Video videos, such as many Winnie the Pooh VHS tapes, including the original 1999-2000 Seasons of Giving, Sing a Song with Pooh Bear and Sing a Song with Tigger VHS releases, as well as a couple of Sing-Along Songs videotapes, Sing Me a Story with Belle, and the Disney’s Favorite Stories series. It also appears on the 1998-99 Buena Vista Home Video VHS releases of The Bear, The Little Twins, and The Duke.

17th Bumper (August 13, 1993)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the words "COMING TO THEATRES THIS FALL FROM THE WALT DISNEY STUDIOS" in a yellow font used for The Nightmare Before Christmas. This was shown after a preview of the aforementioned movie.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on the 1993 print of Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey.

18th Bumper (October 1, 1993)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the words "COMING TO THEATRES FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES" in white. "FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES" is arranged below "COMING TO THEATRES". This was shown before a preview for The Lion King.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on first edition prints of Aladdin.

19th Bumper (October 1, 1993-March 4, 1994)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the words "COMING FOR SUMMER 1994 FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES" in red.

FX/SFX: None.

Variant: On the 1994 Classics VHS release of The Fox and the Hound, the color on the text is a little brighter and the text reads "COMING TO THEATRES FOR SUMMER 1994 FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES".

Music/Sounds: None (Aladdin and The Muppet Christmas Carol) or the end theme of the preview (The Fox and the Hound).

Availability: The former variant is seen on the 1993 VHS copies of Aladdin (1992) and The Muppet Christmas Carol, and the latter variant is seen on the 1994 Classics VHS release of The Fox and the Hound. On all three tapes, it follows a preview for The Lion King (1994).

Legacy: The dark color of the text against the black background makes the text difficult to read.

20th Bumper (September 14, 1994; October 12, 1994-November 16, 1999 (Disney/subsidiaries); December 14, 1999-October 14, 2003 (Dimension/Warren Miller); March 7, 2000)

Nickname: "Flashbang"

Bumper: We see a white flash, after which one of the below clip-ons zoom out in a blue color and in all caps. When it settles, another flash occurs and the background is now blue as well as the clip-on being white. Everything is in all caps. After a few seconds, we fade out.

Trivia:

On the earliest VHS tapes to have these clip-ons, the "Coming Soon to Theaters" clip-on appears as the last clip-on before the "Feature Presentation" clip-on; later in 1994, this was redone so the Theaters clip-on would be first. Tapes with this clip-on order include the original 1994 VHS releases of When a Man Loves a Woman and I Love Trouble.
Rarely, these bumpers would precede a trailer for a non-Disney film or TV show. This occurs on the 1997 VHS of Supercop with a trailer for First Strike (released by New Line; likely included because Jackie Chan stars in both), and on the 1999 rental VHS of Life is Beautiful with a commercial for The King of Queens (which aired on CBS and is owned by Sony Pictures).
The "Coming Soon to Videocassette", "Coming Soon to Rent on Video", "Coming soon on Video and DVD", "Now Available on Videocassette", "Now Available to Rent on Video" clip-ons.
This bumper in general appeared on most home video releases from Disney and its subsidiaries, but was mostly used on VHS, as most DVDs from 1997-99 have no previews.
These clip-ons were mostly relegated to Touchstone and Hollywood Pictures VHS releases, along with most live-action and a small amount of animated Disney VHS tapes from the time period.
- The Feature Presentation bumper appears on most tapes of the era except for some which use the 1992 Lilac Feature Presentation screen, most animated.

Variants:

On the 1995 VHS release of Street Sharks: The Gene Slamming Begins, the "Now Available to Own on Videocassette" clip-on variant abruptly starts just before the second flash occurs. This is likely due to an editing error. The "Coming Soon to Own on Videocassette" clip-on fades in silently at the end of the trailer for Sailor Moon on the same tape, which is simply the English intro to the show.
On both of the Disney Interactive clip-ons, the font is slightly different.
On the Video & DVD, "Feature Program", and rental clip-ons, the text zooms in and the font is Flange Light.
On the "Previews" clip-on, no flash accompanies the text zooming out.
The "Now Appearing" clip-on is in Flange Light and a still image.
The "Stay Tuned after the feature" clip-on, after a few seconds, fades to the "Feature Presentation" clip-on, with the blue background still in place.
On the Crow clip-ons, the Crow symbol zooms out, and after the second flash, the text appears.
"Feature Presentation" clip-on variants:
- Earlier releases had the text already white when it zooms out.
- On the 1995 VHS release of Gargoyles: The Movie, the yellow-orange gradient words are on a black background.
- On the 1997 VHS release of Phenomenon, John Travolta says, "Now, sit back, relax, and enjoy Phenomenon."
- On the 1997 VHS releases of Schoolhouse Rock!, the yellow and red words are on a white background.
- On 1998 VHS releases from Vol. 8 of Walt Disney Film Classics, the text is already in place on the blue background and the ID is still.
"Feature Program" clip-on variants:
- On Disney's Love Tales tapes, the text is in a pink Disney's Love Tales font.
- On Sailor Moon tapes, the text is in a black-rose gradient font, and it was set on a bright, bubbly background mirroring the episode title card to a Sailor Moon episode.
- On Disney's Sweetheart Stories, the text is in a pink Disney's Sweetheart Stories font on a lavender fabric background.
- On Timon and Pumbaa tapes, it takes place on a green background, and the text is in an orange jungle-like font.
- On Quack Pack, Bone Chillers and Disney's Doug tapes, the text is orange, and in lowercase.
  - On Disney's Doug, we see Doug holding a giant pencil in a white background.
  - On Bone Chillers, we see Edgar Allan Poe High School surrounded by bats at night.
  - On Quack Pack, we see Donald Duck sitting on a green chair, staring at the viewer.

FX/SFX: The zooming out, and the white flashes. On zoom-in clip-ons, it is the zooming in of the text

Music/Sounds: A whooshing sound when the first flash occurs, followed by an orchestral 'crash' when the second flash occurs which morphs into a quiet note. The announcer, Brian Cummings, announces the following clip-ons:

Coming Soon to Theaters: "Coming soon to theatres."
Now in Theaters: "Now in theatres."
Coming Soon to Own on Videocassette: "Coming soon to own on videocassette."
Now Available to Own on Videocassette: "Now available to own on videocassette."
Coming Soon to Videocassette: "Coming soon to videocassette."
Now Available on Videocassette: "Now available on videocassette."
Now Available on CD & Cassette: "Now available on CD and cassette."
Look for This Soundtrack: "Look for this great soundtrack."
Coming Soon from Disney Interactive: "Coming soon from Disney Interactive."
Now Available from Disney Interactive: "Now available from Disney Interactive."
Now Available on Video and DVD: "Now available on video and DVD."
Coming Soon on Video and DVD: "Coming soon on video and DVD."
Now Available to Own on Video and DVD: "Now available to own on video and DVD."
Coming Soon to Own on Video and DVD: "Coming soon to own on video and DVD."
Now Available to Own on DVD: "Now available to own on DVD."
Now Available to Rent on Video: "Now available to rent on video."
Coming Soon to Rent on Video: "Coming soon to rent on video."
Stay Tuned after the Feature: "Stay tuned after the feature for more great previews. And now, our feature presentation."
Feature Presentation: "And now, our feature presentation."
Feature Program: "And now, our feature program."
Previews: "Join us, for the following previews!"

Music/Sounds Variants:

The audio was re-orchestrated for the two Disney Interactive clip-ons. The "whoosh" at the start is less muffled and fades out quicker, and a choral note replaces the orchestral crash / quiet note.
On the 1998 VHS release of G.I. Jane, during the "Now Available on CD & Cassette" clip-on, the announcer says, "Now available on CD and cassette from Hollywood Records."
On the "Zoom In" clip-ons as well as the "Previews" clip-on, the intro to "Great Ovation" is heard. Its usage here marks the last time the cue had ever appeared on any Buena Vista bumper.
On the "Feature Program" clip-on, the 1991 Walt Disney Home Video jingle is used.
The "Now Appearing" clip-on is silent.
Stay Tuned:
- On the Crow variant, Brian Cummings says, "Stay tuned after the feature for the last on-camera interview with Brandon Lee, which includes never-before-seen footage. And now, our feature presentation."
- On the Crow: City of Angels variant, Brian Cummings says, "Stay tuned after the feature for a special Brandon Lee tribute, which includes never-before-seen footage. And now, see what's available on CD and cassette."
- On the 1996-97 VHS releases of The Rock, From Dusk Till Dawn (widescreen version only), and Il Postino (The Postman), Brian Cummings says, "Stay tuned after the feature for a very special message. And now, our feature presentation."
  - This variant also appears on the 1997 VHS releases of Scream and Trainspotting, but without "very".
- On the 1995 VHS releases of Tall Tale and Camilla, Brian Cummings says, "Stay tuned after the feature for another great preview. And now, our feature presentation."

Availability: Common. It can be seen on almost all Disney, Buena Vista, Touchstone, Hollywood, Miramax and Dimension VHS tapes issued during the mid-to-late-Nineties.

The clip-ons premiered on the original 1994 VHS release of The Crow, and began widespread usage on four titles issued on the same day, October 12: Touchstone's The Inkwell and Golden Gate, Hollywood's Holy Matrimony, and Miramax's Mother's Boys.
The "Feature Program" variant was seen on the direct-to-video Beauty and the Beast sequels, the original VHS of Disney Sing-Along Songs: Happy Haunting Party at Disneyland, and the 1998 reprints of Winnie the Pooh: Frankenpooh and Spookable Pooh.
The "Now In Theaters" variant was seen on rental printings of The Crow, and later appeared on VHS releases like Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers, Supercop, Brassed Off, 54, and Sing a Song with Tigger.
The last proper appearance of the Flashbang clip-ons on a high-profile release was on the 1999 VHS of Instinct, though they continued to be used until 2001 on Warren Miller Entertainment VHS releases such as Ride and Fifty, on the 2000 VHS release of Sing a Song with Tigger and reprints of Winnie the Pooh compilation videos from that year, and on Dimension Home Video releases into 2003 such as the first two Scary Movie films, Scream 3, Confessions of Sorority Girls, The Accidental Spy, The Crow: Salvation, Dracula 2000, Halloween: Resurrection, early printings of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and the final release with them in general, Mimic 3: Sentinel (higher profile Dimension releases - the first two Spy Kids films, The Others, and later prints of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back - instead used the Filmreel clip-ons).
On DVD, the "Now Available to Own on Video and DVD" clip-on can be seen on the original 1999 DVD release of Enemy of the State (three times, appearing in-between trailers).
The "Previews" clip-on was exclusively seen on demo VHS releases from Dimension and Warren Miller, taking the place of the corresponding Filmreel clip-on.
The "Now Available on CD & Cassette" clip-on also appears on all VHS and Laserdisc releases of Armageddon.

Legacy: This set of clip-ons is known for its omnipresence on many releases from both Disney and their subsidiaries, as well as their startling nature and sporadic appearances on tapes that otherwise have different sets of clip-ons. The zoom-in clip-ons are considered an improvement, but some don't like that it uses "Great Ovation" in the place of the original music.

21st Bumper (March 3, 1995) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the words "COMING THIS SUMMER FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES", "COMING NEXT SUMMER FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES" or "COMING JUNE 23, 1995 FROM WALT DISNEY PICTURES" in a turquoise or cerulean font. Both variants appear before and after a trailer for Pocahontas, respectively.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None on the opening variant; the end of the song "Colors of the Wind" from the Pocahontas trailer on the closing variant.

Availability: This can only be seen on the 1995 Masterpiece Collection VHS releases of The Lion King (1994).

22nd Bumper (April 24, 1996-February 1, 2000) (Walt Disney Pictures/Walt Disney Home Video/Disney Interactive)

Nicknames: "Walt Disney Company Intro", "Something New and Exciting from Disney"

Bumper: We open with a clip from the 1985 Walt Disney Pictures logo (the 1990 variant, specifically), beginning when the "WALT DiSNEY" text is revealed. Afterwards, a montage of the following clips is shown:

The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996): Clopin laughing and tossing down a ball of smoke.
Toy Story: Woody and Buzz "falling with style."
Disneyland's Indiana Jones Adventure attraction: Indy swings on a rope as a rolling boulder races toward the guests.
The exterior of the Palace Theatre in New York City, advertising the Broadway production of Beauty and the Beast, followed by a moment from the show itself.
A little boy and his father watching television, the screen showing an ABC bumper in motion (which is described here).
Bambi: Bambi meeting Flower.
Hercules (1997): Herc awkwardly gesturing.
Scenes from the Hunchback of Notre Dame Festival of Fools stage show at the Disneyland and the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad attraction at the Magic Kingdom.

Afterwards, the introduction fades into one of the first three bumpers listed below:

Bumper B:

Coming to Theaters: The El Capitan Theatre with the curtains raising, revealing a screen with the 1990 updated version of the 1985 Walt Disney Pictures logo. Tinkerbell flies in and waves her wand in animation reused from other bumpers of the time to start the preview for the movie. The screen on the movie theater zooms in to take up the entire screen, and the trailer begins.
Coming to Videocassette: A TV in a living room shows a scene from Fantasia with Mickey Mouse putting the sorcerer's hat on, which cuts to a boy and a girl watching the TV happily. The TV is then shown once more, this time with the 1991 Walt Disney Home Video logo on the screen, which zooms in to start the trailer.
Walt Disney World: An overview shot of Epcot, side views of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Dumbo the Flying Elephant, and the PeopleMover near Spaceship Earth. It ends with the aforementioned animation of Tinkerbell waving her wand to transition to the ad.
Disney Interactive: A clip of a kid playing a Disney Interactive Animated Storybook game. Tinkerbell flies over and changes the computer screen to the Disney Interactive logo, which flashes on a moving purple space background with black text. The logo is then seen as a still on a black background with white text before the ad starts.
Feature Presentation: Just the standard Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection logo without any modifications. (Side Note: The lilac blue Feature Presentation bumper does not appear on the 1996 VHS releases of The Aristocats or Oliver & Company, as both VHS releases have the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection logo with Beau Weaver saying, “And now, our feature presentation”.)

Trivia: This bumper appears on mostly popular VHS releases from WDHV at the time, such as the ones with the Lilac Blue, Flash-bang and Filmreel IDs.

Variants (Bumper A):

April 24, 1996: There is a prototype variant seen on the 1996 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Aristocats (the first Disney VHS to use these bumpers) with different clips. They are:
- Pocahontas: Pocahontas and Meeko go down a waterfall on their canoe.
- A shot of the entrance of the Magic Kingdom in Florida.
- An alternate take of the same moment from the Broadway stage production of Beauty and the Beast.
- A mother watching TV with her two children.
- A rapid-fire montage of Cinderella Castle with fireworks in the sky, Buzz unloading his wings in Toy Story, the "Be Our Guest" sequence from Beauty and the Beast, guests going down the final drop on Splash Mountain, and a clip from the final scene of The Lion King (1994).
September 25, 1996: On the 1996 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of Oliver & Company, the Pocahontas clip was replaced by a clip from The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) (of Quasimodo sliding down a rain gutter, which was also on the 1996 VHS of Toy Story), the alternate take of the same moment from the Broadway stage production of Beauty and the Beast was replaced by the exterior of the Palace Theatre in New York City that advertise the Broadway production of Beauty and the Beast, and the clip of the mother watching TV with her two children was replaced by the clip of the little boy and his father watching TV together.
October 29, 1996: Another early variant is seen on the 1996 VHS release of Toy Story. Here, instead of the clips from Bambi (1942) and Hercules (1997), clips from Pocahontas (of Pocahontas and Meeko going downstream in their canoe, a different shot rather than the same shot that was shown on the 1996 VHS of The Aristocats (1970)) and The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) (of Quasimodo sliding down a rain gutter, as shown on the 1996 VHS of Oliver & Company) were used. The ABC logo on the TV screen is a still of the logo instead of the animated version seen in later versions of the intro.
January 5, 1999: On the first, recalled printing of the 1999 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Rescuers, Beau Weaver simply says, "You can always count on something new and exciting from Disney!" at the end of the bumper without adding anything over the following bumper.

Variants (Bumper B):

Coming to Theaters:
- On the 1996 Masterpiece Collection VHS releases of The Aristocats and Oliver & Company, the announcer says, "Here's a special preview of Disney's next motion picture/animated masterpiece (coming to theaters).”
  - On the former release, a brief scene of a man's hand drawing character designs for Quasimodo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) is seen on the theater screen before the bumper, and the Masterpiece Collection theme is instead replaced with a dreamy string / woodwind tune common on other pre-preview bumpers on Disney tapes from this period, followed by the music for the trailer.
- On the 1998 Masterpiece Collection VHS releases of Hercules (1997) and Peter Pan (1953), the announcer says, "Join us now for a special preview from Walt Disney Pictures!"
- A German version exists.
Coming to Videocassette:
- On the 1996 Masterpiece Collection VHS releases of The Aristocats (1970) and Oliver & Company (1988), Beau Weaver says, "And look for these great Disney movies to add to your home video collection!".
  - On the former title, the music is the beginning of the Oliver & Company song, "Why Should I Worry?". The announcer is still heard. This was most likely due to an editing error, as Oliver & Company was not being advertised.
- On the 1997 VHS release of 101 Dalmatians (1996), Beau Weaver says, "Enjoy all the magic at home with this great Disney movie coming to video!".
- A German version exists.
- Three VHS releases don't have the WDHV logo on the TV screen during the "Coming to Videocassette" bumper:
  - On the 1997 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996), instead of the WDHV logo, the 1985 Walt Disney Pictures logo is seen taking up the entire screen.
  - On the 1997 VHS release of 101 Dalmatians (1996), instead of the WDHV logo, Winnie the Pooh with the words "Once Upon a Time..." above him is seen.
  - On the 1998 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of Lady and the Tramp (1955), instead of the WDHV logo appearing on the screen, the first scene of the trailer for The Jungle Book: Mowgli's Story (a scene of Colonel Hathi shouting) is seen.
  - On the 2000 VHS releases of Tarzan (1999) and Toy Story (1995), the 1999 version of the bumper is seen as usual, then the 1991 WDHV logo fades in to the Disney DVD logo, which shines and zooms out of the TV screen. Beau Weaver says, "Enjoy all the magic at home with these great Disney movies coming to video and Disney DVD!"
Walt Disney World:
- On the original 1996 VHS release of Toy Story and the 1997 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996), the first two clips in the "Walt Disney World" bumper are of the Main Street Electrical Parade and the Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom. Beau Weaver says, "And now, Walt Disney World celebrates its 25th anniversary!".
Disney Interactive:
- On the 1996 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Aristocats, Tinkerbell is mirrored from her usual position. Beau Weaver says, "And, here's what's new from Disney Interactive!".

FX/SFX:

Bumper A: The clips in the montage fading into one another. In the case of the Hunchback clip, the screen turns white when Clopin throws down his smoke ball, which then fades into the Toy Story clip. At the end of the montage, the cross-fade to any three of the possible "Bumper B" bumpers.
Bumper B: For the Coming to Theaters bumper, the curtains coming up, Tinkerbell flying, and the theater screen zooming to fill the TV screen - a mix of live-action and 2D animation. On the Coming to Videocassette bumper, the image on the TV screen zooming in to fill the screen at the end of the bumper. (Note: This is stock footage from the 1991 Disney Channel documentary Be Our Guest: The Making of Beauty and the Beast, hosted by David Ogden Stiers, the voice of Cogsworth.)

Music/Sounds (Bumper A): The 1985 Walt Disney Pictures logo theme, followed by the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection theme (which plays into whichever bumper follows the intro). While this plays, Beau Weaver says the following: "From magical movies, to unforgettable adventures, from the thrill of the theater, to the comfort of your home, you can always count on something new and exciting from Disney."

Music/Sounds (Bumper B):

Coming to Theaters: The last few notes of the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection logo music, fading into the music for the trailer. Beau Weaver is heard saying, "Join us for a special preview from Walt Disney Pictures."
Coming to Videocassette: Either a dreamy string / woodwind tune if the bumper is seen on its own, or the end of the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection logo music if it's connected to the Walt Disney Company Intro as the second bumper. Beau Weaver says, "Enjoy all the magic at home with these great Disney movies coming to video!"
Walt Disney World: The end of the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection logo music, along with Beau Weaver saying, "Now, here's a special message from Walt Disney World.". This was shown on the 1996 VHS of The Aristocats.
Disney Interactive: A gentle calypso theme that would later be used on the ABC bumpers. Beau Weaver says either "Let's see what's in store for you, from Disney Interactive." from the 1996 VHS Oliver & Company or "There's always something exciting for everyone from Disney Interactive!" from the 1996 VHS of Toy Story to the early copies of the 1997 VHS of The Jungle Book (1967).
Feature Presentation: The full Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection logo theme and Beau Weaver saying, "And now, our feature presentation." during the last few seconds.

Music/Sounds Variants (Bumper A):

The prototype versions that was seen on both releases of The Aristocats and Oliver & Company used a slightly different announcement: "From movies, to magical vacations, from the theater, to your living room, there's always something new and exciting from Disney."
On the original 1996-97 VHS releases of Toy Story and The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996), the music is accompanied by extra sound effects, including a "poof" sound when Clopin throws his smoke ball, a rumbling sound for the boulder as it rolls, and the little boy giggling.
On the 1999-2000 VHS releases of A Bug's Life, The Great Mouse Detective, Toy Story, and Tarzan (1999) (the last Disney VHS release to use the Walt Disney Company intro), the 1992 bass-distorted version of the Walt Disney Classics theme is heard instead of the Masterpiece Collection theme during the second half of the bumper. Beau Weaver's announcement was also re-recorded. This was possibly due to the Masterpiece Collection was soon ending at the time.

Availability: It can be seen on WDHV tapes with the Walt Disney Company Intro. The "Feature Presentation" clip-on is extremely rare, as most tapes instead used the standard 1991, 1994, or 1999 IDs, but it appears exclusively on the 1996 Masterpiece Collection releases of The Aristocats and Oliver & Company. The “Coming to Theaters” clip on also appears on the 1999 60th Anniversary VHS release of Pinocchio (1940). These bumpers don't appear on their DVDs as they have no previews or filmreel bumpers instead

Legacy: A thrilling montage through the world of Disney, this is a nostalgic favorite among many due to its appearances on many famous titles throughout the 1990s, and are a refreshing change of pace from the previous clip-ons. These bumpers brought some much-needed consistency to Disney branding; the variations of each bumper are very slight compared to the clip-on sets on prior Disney releases. Sadly, an original Feature Presentation bumper was not made for these bumpers since these titles either used the Masterpiece Collection logo (appears on The Aristocats and Oliver & Company) or the 1991, 1994 and 1999 FP bumpers.

23rd Bumper (March 1997)

Bumper: TBA

FX/SFX: TBA

Music/Sounds: Brian Cummings says, "Now our feature presentation, part of the biggest rental program ever, Hollywood Hits 1997".

Availability: Seen on demo VHS releases of films intended for the Hollywood Hits '97 rental program, including those of Ransom, Swingers, and Adrenalin: Fear the Rush.

24th Bumper (November 11, 1997) (Walt Disney Records)

Bumper: We see the words "Now Available on CD & Cassette" and a still image of Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas, ala the Stay Tuned bumper of the era.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: A male announcer, who also provided the voiceover for UAV/Sterling's own IDs, saying, "Now available on CD and cassette".

Availability: This can only be seen on the original 1997 VHS release of Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas.

25th Bumper (March 31, 1998) (Walt Disney Pictures/Walt Disney Home Video)

Nickname: "Walt Disney Company Intro: Little Mermaid Edition"

Bumper A: We see clips from The Little Mermaid (1989), before going to a live action environment with a live action fishbowl showing CGI versions of Gil and Phil from the movie, and then a live action Jodi Benson (who plays Ariel) coming up introducing the movie The Little Mermaid, going to the next bumper.

Bumper B:

Coming Soon to Theaters: Following the introduction, Jodi Benson introduces a sneak peek of the studio's upcoming feature Mulan with CGI replicas of Gil and Phil, before cutting to the teaser for Mulan (1998).
Coming Soon to Theaters (B): After the trailer for Mulan (1998), Gil and Phil, along with Jodi Benson, introduce a sneak peek of A Bug's Life. We can see a paper with the Mulan logo along with "COMING TO THEATERS 1998", shown below it. We then cut to the teaser for A Bug's Life, with Benson continuing to narrate.
Coming Soon to Video: After the trailer for A Bug's Life, we cut back to Gil and Phil, along with Jodi Benson, introducing their newest video release Melody Time, which was released on VHS as a Masterpiece Collection title.
Coming Soon to Video (B): After the trailer for Melody Time, we cut back to Gil and Phil, along with Jodi Benson, introducing the new compilation video The Spirit of Mickey.
Coming Soon to Video (C): After the trailer for The Spirit of Mickey, we cut back to Gil and Phil, along with Jodi Benson, introducing their direct-to-video sequel Pocahontas: Journey to a New World.
Coming Soon to Video (D): After the trailer for Pocahontas: Journey to a New World, we cut back to Gil and Phil, along with Jodi Benson, introducing their newest Masterpiece Collection video release of Lady and the Tramp (1955).
Disney Cruise Line: After the trailers, we cut back to Gil and Phil, along with Jodi Benson, giving us a message to Disney Cruise Line.
Disney's One Saturday Morning: After the Disney Cruise Line message, we cut back to Gil and Phil, along with Jodi Benson telling them about Disney's One Saturday Morning on ABC.
Feature Presentation: We start with the camera zooming out of an extremely close, tilted shot of the words "FEATURE PRESENTATION", done in gold (a la 20th Century Fox structure logo). As the camera pans out to a confortable distance/angle, the letters are revealed to be sitting at the center of a dark-blue stadium on a gradient black to indigo background, with several spotlights standing still in the background. The logo is shown on a live-action television, viewed from a fishbowl underwater. As a result, the logo look slightly distorted by the ripples in the water, and as the camera pans into the television set the logo is being shown on, the aforementioned fish are initially seen at the left and right of the screen, and a castle that is in the fishbowl is covers up part of the lower-left screen.
Stay Tuned: Before fading away to the home video variant of the THX "Broadway" logo, Jodi Benson (as part of the filler at the start of the VHS where she converses with her CGI pet goldfish, Gil and Phil) reminds the audience to stay tuned for a music video.

FX/SFX: A mix of live action and CGI.

Music/Sounds (Bumper A): An excerpt from the song "Under the Sea", along with some dialogue introducing the film.

Music/Sounds (Bumper B): The actual bumper is silent, but we hear Gil and Phil (two computer-animated goldfish) conversing with Jodi Benson and themselves about the upcoming film they are about to watch:

Gil: "Yeah, the shrimp!" (This is in response to Jodi listing off Flounder as one of the characters from the film they--and by extension, the audience--are about to watch.)
Phil: "Well, grab a seat, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show."

Availability: Seen on the 1998 Masterpiece Collection VHS issue of The Little Mermaid (1989).

Legacy: Disney's first attempt at a set of custom VHS bumpers. This practice would later be replicated on the 1999 VHS release of Mulan (1998), using shorter clips compared to this set of bumpers, which use a more fitting "filler" to make the clip-ons more entertaining.

26th Bumper (October 27, 1998) (Walt Disney Pictures/Walt Disney Home Video)

Nickname: "Walt Disney Company Intro II"

Bumper A: A light moves over from a black background, and a white flash appears. The flash reveals itself to be clips from The Rescuers. We cut to a yellow box in the upper left corner, and a filmstrip appears, and then a blue box appears at the bottom half of the screen. The black words "get" slide up and the white words "ready" slide up from the bottom. Then it cuts to clips from 101 Dalmatians (1961) and A Bug's Life, then it cuts back to the screen, but the words "get" is replaced by "hold" and "ready" is replaced by "on". After that, it cuts to a clip from Mulan (1998), and it cuts back to the screen, only this time the black word on the yellow box reads "brace" and the white word on the blue box reads "yourself". This cuts to more clips from Mulan (1998) and The Rescuers, then it cuts to the film countdown with the yellow words "action", sliding up and a zoom in effect. It cuts to clips from Mighty Joe Young (1998), and it cuts back to the countdown, only this time it reads "fun" instead of "action". Finally, it cuts to a clip from Mulan (1998) and A Bug's Life, and it cuts back to the countdown, only this time it reads "adventure". Then it cuts to clips from 101 Dalmatians (1961), The Rescuers, Mulan (1998) and Mighty Joe Young (1998), before it fades to the Coming to Theaters bumper from Bumper B.

Bumper B:

Coming Soon to Theaters: We fade into a screen that has a yellow box in the upper-left corner and a cerulean blue box at the bottom half of the screen. Just as we fade in, black text that reads "coming soon to theaters" (with "theaters" in a slightly larger font, placed below "coming soon to") fades onto the screen in the yellow box. The "Walt Disney Pictures" logo (with the "PICTURES" text more closely packed-into each other) fades in on the blue box at the bottom. As this all happens, blue-tinted pictures of film used for movie cameras can be seen cycling in the box in the upper-right corner of the screen.
Coming Soon to Video: A bright, lens-flare-styled flash occurs. After the flash disappears, we see a screen that has a yellow box in the upper-left corner, a box of blue television static that has an oddly designed, "retro" styled television set with a transparent screen in the upper right corner, and a cerulean blue box at the bottom half of the screen. We see blue text that reads "coming soon" fading in on the yellow box, followed by the Walt Disney Home Video logo (with the "HOME VIDEO" text packed closely together underneath the Walt Disney text) logo fading in on the blue box. At the same time, the television screen on the television set has the Gold 1991 Walt Disney Home Video logo fade in.
Feature Presentation: There is a white flash that becomes a yellow square, which moves to the upper right of the screen to reveal a blue background with a test pattern. Then the words "feature presentation" in white zoom in while a purple filmstrip appears and wipes the background away. The background becomes black and "feature" moves from right to left above "presentation".

FX/SFX: The cycling pictures of films, the moving blue television static background, and the text for both boxes fading in.

Music/Sounds (Bumper A): A techno hip hop tune with whooshes and Brian Cummings saying, "And now... get ready... hold on... and brace yourself... for all the action... fun... and adventure... coming your way from Walt Disney Studios!"

Music/Sounds (Bumper B): Just Brian Cummings saying, "Coming soon to theaters from Walt Disney Pictures." or "And coming soon, from Walt Disney Home Video...".

Music/Sounds (Bumper C): A whooshing sound when the flash appears, followed by Brian Cummings saying "And now, Disney proudly presents: The Lion King II: Simba's Pride!"

Availability: Extremely rare, as it only appeared on the original 1998 VHS tape of The Lion King II: Simba's Pride.

Legacy: A failed attempt to replace the 1996 Walt Disney Company Intro and its corresponding bumpers, this ambitious set of bumpers were only used for one tape. The concept of the filmstrips, the color scheme and some of the font choices seem to have laid the groundwork for the 1999 clip-ons.

27th Bumper (February 2, 1999) (Walt Disney Pictures/Walt Disney Home Video)

Nicknames: "Walt Disney Company Intro: Mulan Edition"

Bumper:

Please stay Tuned: On a red-black gradient background, we see the yellow Mulan symbol. Above it is "Please Stay TUNED".
Introduction: Cutting away from the "Please Stay Tuned" bumper, in the forest is Cri-kee, Mushu, Mulan (in her male soldier disguise) and the black horse Khan introduce us to the previews.
Coming Soon to Video (A): Just the 1991 Walt Disney Home Video logo without any modifications. A bug cuts itself, revealing that of Mushu and his bug Cri-Kee riding underwater on a sea. Then it cuts to the trailer for A Bug's Life.
Coming Soon to Video (B): After the trailer for A Bug's Life, we cut to Cri-Kee hitting a gong; this then cuts to a screen with Mushu and Cri-Kee, then Mulan kicks away to reveal the trailer for Winnie the Pooh: Sing a Song with Pooh Bear.
Coming Soon to Video (C): After the trailer for Winnie the Pooh: Sing a Song with Pooh Bear, Mushu tries to hold his gong and kick its mallet out. Then it reveals the trailer for the Masterpiece Collection release of 101 Dalmatians (1961).
After the Movie: On a paper sheet, we see Mulan's bug taking away and start writing Chinese characters. Then it zooms in, and a stone background, with "www.DisneyVideos.go.com" wipes in slowly and the Go Network logo appears, then it cuts to the same characters doing interwork. This can be only seen on early printings.
Sneak Peek: Just the logo for Disney's Tarzan.
Feature Presentation: Same as the "Please Stay Tuned" ID, except the text says "Feature Presentation".

FX/SFX: Depends on each clip-on.

Music/Sounds: A sound of a gong being struck, along with Brian Cummings cheerfully narrating:

Please stay Tuned: "Please stay tuned after the previews for a special behind-the-scenes look at an upcoming Disney animated entertainment event!"
Coming Soon to Video: "Coming soon to home video!"
After the Movie: "After the movie, play exciting games and go on new adventures with Mulan at www.DisneyVideos.go.com, part of the Go Network."
Sneak Peek: "And now, a sneak preview of Disney's all-new animated motion picture, Tarzan!"
Feature Presentation: "And now, our feature presentation!"

Availability: Seen on the 1999 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of Mulan (1998).

Legacy: Similarly to the custom intro to the 1998 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Little Mermaid, all the bumpers in this intro are creatively blended into the start of the trailers. However, this set is a lot shorter, but still well done.

28th Bumper (October 26, 1999) (Walt Disney Home Video)

Bumper: Over a random clip of Pinocchio (1940), a clip-on appears in a stylized font.

Clip-ons:

Coming Soon to Own on Video
Available this Holiday Season
Feature Presentation

FX/SFX: The clips and the clip-on appearing.

Music/Sounds: The first two clip-ons feature specially recorded instrumental cues, while the third has some of "When You Wish Upon a Star." All three have Brian Cummings doing the announcement.

Music/Sounds Variants:

On the “Available This Holiday Season” clip-on, Brian Cummings announces, “Available to own this holiday season...” while an instrumental rendition of "Jingle Bells" plays.
On the “Feature Presentation” clip-on, Brian Cummings cheerfully exclaims, “And now, our feature presentation!”

Availability: This custom bumper set only appears on the 1999 60th Anniversary VHS release of Pinocchio (1940). No “Coming Soon to Theaters” bumper was made for this title since it used the 1996 bumpers.

Legacy: The “...to Own on Video” and “Feature Presentation” announcements were later used in the 1999-2010 IDs. The "Available this Holiday Season" later got its own bumper below. Along with the two sets of bumpers listed below, these were used as early templates for the 1999-2010 IDs. This is one of the earliest bumpers to use the voiceover variants for the 1999 filmreel bumpers. Unlike the previous custom clip-ons, these do not blend in the trailers whatsoever.

29th Bumper (November 9, 1999) (Walt Disney Home Video)

Bumper: We see a house in a snowy place with the words "AVAILABLE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON".

Music/Sounds: Brian Cummings announces, “Available to own this holiday season...” while an instrumental rendition of "Jingle Bells" plays.

Availability: This bumper appears only on the 1999 VHS release of I’ll Be Home for Christmas.

30th Bumper (November 9, 1999) (Walt Disney Home Video)

Bumper: Same as the previous ID, except with Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas.

Clip-ons:

Coming Soon to Own on Video
Now Available to Own on Video
Feature Presentation

FX/SFX: The clips.

Music/Sounds: Like the previous ID, some associated music and Cummings' voiceover.

Music/Sounds Variant: On the “Feature Presentation” clip-on, Brian Cummings cheerfully exclaims, “And now, our feature presentation!”

Availability: Like above, this is a custom bumper set only appearing on the 1999 VHS release of Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas.

Legacy: Unlike the previous ID, all three announcements were later used in the 1999-2010 IDs. The font for these clip-ons was later used in the next ID.

31st Bumper (December 7, 1999) (Walt Disney Home Video)

Bumper: Same as the previous two IDs, except with Inspector Gadget (1999).

Clip-ons:

Coming Soon to Own on Video and DVD
Now Available to Own on Video and DVD
Feature Presentation

FX/SFX: The clips of Inspector Gadget.

Music/Sounds: Like the previous two IDs, some associated music and Cummings' voiceover.

Music/Sounds Variant: On the “Feature Presentation” clip-on, Brian Cummings cheerfully exclaims, “And now, our feature presentation!”

Availability: This is a custom bumper set only appearing on the 1999 VHS release of Inspector Gadget (1999).

Legacy: All three announcements were later used in the 1999-2010 IDs.

Nickname: "Filmreel"

Bumper:

We see one of the following clip-on texts - some of which slides down while the other section of text slides to the right, respectively, before settling. There is a pink rectangular strip on the top (moving towards the bottom of the screen), a gold rectangular strip at the top moving to the right, a transparent strip moving to the left (forming into a backing for the top clip-on text), golden lines moving in from every side and a gold rectangular strip that forms from the right going toward the left side of the screen (the bottom clip-on text will usually end up in this strip). Film reels are slowly spinning in the blue-tinted background.
When hitting "Sneak Peeks" on the main menu on most 2004-10 DVDs, the phrase "Sneak Peeks" zooms slowly down the top of the screen and stays put. Four gold arrows slide in from all four directions of the screen, after which the words "PLAY ALL" (on the top right side of the screen), "MAIN MENU" (at the bottom right side) and "MORE" (at the bottom left side) fade in. Then, several logos for movies/TV shows/TV networks animate in several unique ways and appear in the middle of the screen in all sides. Then, a blue filmreel with gold holes appears next to either one of the logos or "PLAY ALL", and the viewer can use their remote control to move the filmreel to a movie logo, which by clicking on them takes them to the trailer they want to see, or to "PLAY ALL" (which plays all the trailers, either on the disc or on the page), "MAIN MENU" (which jumps right back to the main menu), "MORE" (which jumps to an additional page of trailers), and "BACK" (which can only be accessed from the second page, and jumps back to the first page). When the viewer selects a trailer they want, the small filmreel inverts and the menu cuts to black, then the start of the trailer. To see an expanding list of logo animations on this menu/bumper, click here.

Trivia:

Early DVD releases from Disney and its subsidiaries had no previews or when had previews did not allow viewers to skip the previews. Because of subsequent backlash, the ability to jump directly to the main menu at any time was added. In August 2000, text regarding such an option was added to the first clip-on on the disc (more on that below), although the 2001-04 DVD releases of Just Visiting, The Love Bug, and My Baby's Daddy, which use only one clip-on, feature no additional text. This ability was also provided by Disney's Fast Play, which was introduced in 2004, except on discs with it, there were no bumpers in-between trailers until 2010.
Some 2000 DVDs, such as The Sixth Sense, Mumford, and Mission to Mars, featured the same previews as on the disc's opening accessible from the main menu, except the option is entitled "Preview Trailer(s)" and the previews, complete with the original IDs, run automatically (a practice that, except for a "More Sneak Peeks" option in the "Sneak Peeks" menu on the original release of Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure, was later abandoned, only for it to be revived in 2010). Starting with Keeping the Faith, it was officially changed to "Sneak Peeks," although the trailer option was titled "Sneak Peeks" on the earlier-released Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins.
Some DVDs, such as Shanghai Noon and Knights, High Fidelity, Newsies, Bringing Down the House, The Recruit, Sling Blade: Exclusive Director's Cut, and Prozac Nation, feature previews before the main menu, but don't offer a "Sneak Peeks" option.
Following the Sneak Peeks menu variant's retirement, the menu was reverted back to its 2000-04 design. Discs with this include Everybody's Fine, When in Rome, and the 2010 reissues of the first two Toy Story films. Starting with the DVD release of Alice in Wonderland (2010), the previews play automatically for the first time since 2000 whenever "Sneak Peeks" is pressed, a practice that would last until 2021.
On the 2004 DVD release of Home on the Range, the "Coming Soon to Own on DVD & Video" clip-on appears twice, once before a trailer for Aladdin: Platinum Edition, and once again before trailers for Mulan: Special Edition and Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas (the latter of which, unusually for a 2004-06 DVD, appears on the second page of the Sneak Peeks menu on the disc instead of the first).
Conversely, on the 2005 DVD release of The Parent Trap: 2-Movie Collection, a preview for Toy Story: 10th Anniversary Edition is shown, despite the "Now Available TO OWN ON DVD" bumper being missing. This could be because of a later reissue of Toy Story 2 being advertised at the preview's very end.
Normally, on any DVD with the Sneak Peeks menu variant, if you press "up" on "PLAY ALL," the cursor will move to "MAIN MENU." However, on the 2005 DVD release of The Pacifier, if you go to page 2, then press "up" on "PLAY ALL," the cursor will move to "BACK."
Likewise, when pressing down from "PLAY ALL" on the Sneak Peeks menu, it goes to the preview closest to it. However, on the 2007 DVD release of Home Improvement: The Complete Seventh Season, the preview underneath it on each respective page is for Blu-ray Disc and The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause, but pressing "down" instead highlights Wild Hogs or Underdog.
On the 2005-07 DVD releases of Father of the Bride: 15th Anniversary Special Edition, Tarzan II and Higglytown Heroes: Heroes on the Move (the latter two of which feature Disney's FastPlay), after playing any or all of the previews on the Sneak Peeks menu, the user is returned to the main menu.
The upper text in each clip-on is in lowercase with capitalized letters, while the lower text is in all caps.
From 2006-09, the opening previews on any given disc featuring the Sneak Peeks menu were included on its second page (unless a release had only one page, in which case they all appear on the same page).
The filmreel background was later reused for the 2005-20 IDs on the Coming Soon to Theaters ID.
On the 2008 DVDs of Enchanted and National Treasure: Book of Secrets, the Sneak Peeks menus have almost identical preview arrangements, especially on the first page, with only a few trailers differing between them. Same can be said for the 2008 DVD releases of The Muppet Show: Season 3 and Home Improvement: The Complete Eighth Season (but with the latter having a third preview). All of these titles are some of the last to use the original variant before the 2008 variant was introduced.
In a similar case to the Flashbang bumpers, the trailers for titles that could be rented but not properly purchased were preceded by the "...ON VIDEO", "...ON DVD", "...TO RENT ON VIDEO", and "...ON VIDEO & DVD" clip-ons. The trailers for titles that could be properly purchased were preceded by the "...TO OWN ON VIDEO", "...TO OWN ON DVD", and "...TO OWN ON VIDEO & DVD" clip-ons.
On early releases with the Sneak Peeks menu, all the logos for titles fade in at once. Later releases with the menu show them all animate at once, and eventually show each logo animate in various ways.
These clip-ons were mostly relegated to most Buena Vista releases except most early-to-mid-2000s Dimension Home Video VHS tapes.
The Sneak Peeks menu background & music was still used on Buena Vista DVDs from 2006-2009 after the main bumpers were replaced with the 2006-2020 bumpers.
These are the first main clip ons not to involve the intro to "Great Ovation" as the previous bumpers such as Flashbang used, and also the last to use a voiceover.
- It's also the first clip on not to use either version of the 1991 Walt Disney Home Video logo music that some previous bumpers also used.
DVDs released from 2000-05 with trailers include a still card for each trailer after each bumper. DVDs released after 2005 would jump into their sets of trailers after each bumper. it retuned on some 2010 DVDs during previews.

Variants:

While the upper text in each clip-on remains in a Helvetica Light font (similar to the JCPenney logo), the bottom text may appear in a different font, and each clip-on may animate differently, as explained below.
- The clip-ons with the bottom text that appears in a widened Helvetica Light font animate in a smooth way (the lower text having a "motion blur" effect applied), with both the upper and lower texts sliding slowly while inside the screen.
- In a few cases, the lower text appears in a widened Verdana font and slides into the golden strip slightly slower than usual. This version occurs only on the early version of the "Now Available ON VIDEO" clip-on, and the "Now Available ON CD" and "Join Us AFTER THE PROGRAM" clip-ons. A similar version appears on the "Join Us AFTER THE MOVIE" clip-on, except the text "AFTER THE MOVIE" is in a standard Verdana font.
- In other cases, the lower text is in a standard Verdana font, emerges from the left side of the screen and swiftly slides into the golden strip. The upper text also emerges from the top of the screen before it falls to its usual position. This version occurs on the early version of the "Now Available TO OWN ON DVD" clip-on as well as the "New From DISNEY INTERACTIVE" and "New From THE SECRET LAB" clip-ons. This also applies to the later versions of the "Coming Soon to Theaters FROM DISNEY & PIXAR", "Now Available ON VIDEO", "Previews" and "Feature PROGRAM" clip-ons.
- For both "COLLECTOR'S EDITION DVD" clip-ons, the bottom text appears in Helvetica Light.
On the 2006 widescreen DVD release of Cars (which is one of the last releases to feature this bumper), there is a more detailed version where the 3D text "Coming Soon" turns downward to face the viewer. "TO THEATERS" or "TO OWN ON DVD" (depending on the bumper used) swipes in from the left side of the screen and rotates to face the viewer, settling above the golden strip. The background from the original variant of the Sneak Peeks menu/bumper is used. It would appear this was a prototype bumper that would eventually lead to the 2006 era bumpers, as the 3D text resembles the animation used in those bumpers.
From 2000-05, text would appear on the bottom left corner that reads "Press [MENU] to play movie or to select other options." This usually appears on the first bumper used during the previews, and was first seen on the 2000 DVD release of Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins (although strangely, it appears over both clip-ons; this was also the case on the original release of Sin City, issued in 2005, as well as on two of the three clip-ons on The Brave Little Toaster, released in 2003). This text was removed starting with the 2005 DVD release of Home Improvement: The Complete Third Season (the last to use the text were The Golden Girls: The Complete Third Season, released on the same day as the Home Improvement set, November 22, 2005, and Toy Story 2: Two-Disc Special Edition, released on December 26 of that year).
- On the 2004 DVD release of That's So Raven: Supernaturally Stylish, the text appears on the second clip-on instead of the first.
UK/Irish and Greek DVD releases have the white text "ON VIDEO & DVD" fade in and slide inside the golden strip instead.
- As a side note, the 2000 UK/Irish DVD releases of The Tigger Movie and Tarzan (possibly the first ever DVDs to be released by Disney in the UK/Ireland to contain previews) features the "Coming Soon to Own on Video & DVD" variant, complete with the voiceover and music, only the bumper fades to black, then to a still card for the first preview.
- This variant is translated to “Auf video and DVD” on German and Turkish DVDs.
- This variant is translated to "EN VIDEO ET DVD" on some French DVDs.
- On DVDs released in Spain, the bottom text is translated to “en video y DVD” and “Titulos que estan or estaran proximamente” is added above.
In December 2003, due to the increasing popularity of the DVD format, the bottom text in the Coming Soon/Now Available clip-ons was switched to "DVD & VIDEO." This version was first used on the VHS of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (its DVD counterpart used the "VIDEO & DVD" versions), and made its first DVD appearances on Recess: All Growed Down and Recess: Taking the Fifth Grade.
Certain VHS releases, as described above and below this section, use different versions of this bumper that are tailor-made specifically for the release. However, the clip-ons and voiceovers remain the same. Examples include:
- The 1999 60th Anniversary VHS release of Pinocchio (1940)
- Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas
- Inspector Gadget (1999)
- Playhouse Disney VHS tapes from 2000-05
- Most teen-oriented Buena Vista, Marvel, and Miramax VHS tapes from 2002-05
There are two variants for the "Coming Soon to Theaters from Disney & Pixar" clip-on:
- The font is in a bolder and slightly narrower Helvetica font, "Coming Soon" is above the gold rectangle, "TO THEATERS" is in it, and "From Disney & Pixar" (with "From" smaller) is arranged below it. In addition, the text is already partially shown just as the bumper appears. This variant is seen only on the original 2000 VHS and DVD releases of Toy Story 2.
- "Coming Soon to Theaters" (now in the normal Helvetica Light font) is arranged above the gold rectangle and "FROM DISNEY & PIXAR" (in the Verdana font used for the Now Available to Own on DVD ID of the time) is in said rectangle. This variant is seen only on the original 2002 VHS release of Monsters, Inc..
There are two variants for the “Now Available on Video” clip-on:
- On the 2000 VHS re-release of I'll Be Home for Christmas, "Now Available" is slightly narrower and "ON VIDEO" is in a widened Verdana font.
- On the 2002 VHS release of Spider-Man: The Return of the Green Goblin, "Now Available" is in Helvetica and "ON VIDEO" is in Verdana.
There are two variants for the “Now Available to Own On DVD” clip-on:
- On VHS tapes such as the 2002-05 VHS releases of the Vault Disney Collection series, Sweet Home Alabama, Moonlight Mile, Freaky Friday (2003), Scary Movie 3, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, and The Muppets' Wizard of Oz, the slide-in is rougher, and the bottom text is in Verdana. Although most DVDs use the second variant, this variant continued usage on Roger Corman, Miramax and Dimension titles such as the 2005-06 DVD releases of Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood, The Great Raid, Hostage, Tsotsi, Asphalt Wars, Keeping Up with the Steins, Daltry Calhoun, An Unfinished Life, Bride & Prejudice, and Chicago: The Razzle-Dazzle Edition.
- On most DVDs, both of the texts are presented in their usual font and slide-in smoothly.
There are two variants for the “Previews” clip-on:
- 2000-01 demo tapes, such as The Kid, crazy/beautiful, High Fidelity, and Chocolat, feature a partly-formed still image of the bumper, and "Previews" sliding in from the left.
- 2001-04 demo tapes, such as Unbreakable, Jerry Seinfeld: Comedian, Moonlight Mile, and Cold Creek Manor feature the bumper animating as usual, except this time, "Previews" comes down from the top.
There are two variants for the "New from Disney Interactive" clip-on:
- "New From" is arranged above the gold rectangle in a white Helvetica font and "DISNEY INTERACTIVE" (in the Verdana font used for the Now Available to Own on DVD ID of the time) is in said rectangle.
- A still version of this bumper appears only on the 2000 VHS release of Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins.
On Australian VHS tapes, there are also ratings bumpers that remove all the lines and rectangles from the background. The clip-ons for this are written in the Helvetica Light font and appear like this:
- The following preview is classified [rating]
- The following previews are classified [rating]
- This following feature is classified [rating]
- The following previews & feature are classified [rating]
There are two variants for the “Feature Presentation” clip-on:
- On the standard "Feature Presentation" clip-on, the bumper moves differently. On a gold background, we see the text "Feature PRESENTATION" zooming to the left. Then, "Feature" zooms to the left and the "PRESENTATION" zooms to the right, changing the background to a blue background with a blurry filmreel on it, and they connect together in the middle. Gold arrows and multicolored rectangles move around the bumper in different ways.
- On some tapes from 2001-05, an alternate "Feature Presentation" bumper is shown like this: We see a CGI version of Cinderella Castle on a cloud, with fireworks exploding on a dusk background. We zoom in and through the entrance at the same time as some stars. A large firework goes off in the center of the screen, while circles of what are supposed to like filmstrips spin around, with a still image of a Disney/Pixar film on each frame. A circle of stars spins at the top of it, then the filmstrips and circle of stars go down as the text "FEATURE PRESENTATION", in gold (and in the same font as the 1st CGI FP bumper from the 1998 Masterpiece Collection VHS release of The Little Mermaid), comes up from the bottom of the screen. After the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" text moves up to the center of the screen, several fireworks fly up and explode behind the text. Then the bumper fades out.
There are two variants for the “Feature Program” clip-on:
- An earlier version used a still image that has the words scrunched together. In this case, the "Feature PROGRAM" text is very large. While "Feature" is slightly narrower, "PROGRAM" is wider and positioned above the golden strip.
- A later version contains the same animation as the second variant of the "Coming Soon to Theaters FROM DISNEY & PIXAR" clip-on, except with "Feature" on top and "PROGRAM" on the golden strip.
On the "After the Feature" variant, the animation of the logo seems to be slowed down as well.
After the movie/program, the text "Special Bonus Material" is pasted over a textless version of the background from the usual filmreel ID. This variant appears only on Australian VHS tapes.
Very rare variants exist on Australian VHS tapes which feature very generic text and concern specific "after the feature" events. Instead of matching up with the other bumpers, some bumpers don't match at all, instead being in a plain white Arial font, with a black shadow drop effect applied:
- "Stay tuned after the feature for a special music video"
- "Stay tuned after the feature for a bonus short"
- "Stay tuned after this feature for special bonus material"
There is an extremely rare variant that is seen on the 2000 VHS release of Diamonds. The colored squares and golden arrows are removed from the filmreel background, and instead of the usual text, we see "Join Us After the Feature for a Special Message," in gold, displayed on the screen.
A few of the clip-ons were translated into Spanish and French for U.S. Spanish and French Canadian VHS and DVD releases, respectively.
There are multiple variants for the "Sneak Peek" clip-on:
- On the original release of The Lion King 1 1/2, the filmreel is slightly thicker. This may be because it was the first DVD designed with this bumper, as the disc files are dated 12/5/03. (Open Range, which uses the normal icon, has its files dating to 12/9/03,)
- On some earlier DVDs with the original variant, the logos faded in all at once. This can be seen on The Lion King 1 1/2, Brother Bear, The Haunted Mansion, Calendar Girls, Hope Springs, and Ghosts of the Abyss. The first DVD to use animation on the logos was Duplex, which exclusively features a preview for Miramax, whose logo slides in from the right side of the screen.
- Duplex also has the menu fade in.
- In August of 2004, the boxes were deleted, therefore leaving the background as just plain blue. However, Disney releases continued to use the original variant until October.
- Later in 2004, the text font and lines became thinner and the background is now slightly darker. This makes a strange appearance on the second page of trailers on the 2005 DVD release of Walt Disney's Classic Cartoon Favorites: Volume 7 - Extreme Adventure Fun, despite the first page using the 2005 variant.
- Another variant was introduced in March 2005, where the animation runs smoother, the filmreel background is different, and the logo animations run at different times instead of all at once.
- In some rare cases, the menu appears already formed. So far, this is only known to appear on the 2004-05 DVD releases of Rolie Polie Olie: Springy-Time Fun, Open Range, Under the Tuscan Sun, Freaky Friday (1976), Boy Meets World: The Complete First Season, Power Rangers Dino Thunder: Volume 1 - Day of the Dino, Lizzie McGuire: StarStruck, Lizzie McGuire: Totally Crushed, The Station Agent, Disney Princess Party Volume 1, Disney Princess Stories: Vol. 1 - A Gift from the Heart, Pokémon: Destiny Deoxys, and early pressings of Hostage.
- On some DVDs, a black screen appears before the menu plays, while others go straight to the start of the menu.
- Some releases with the original variant, including Brother Bear, Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers, Home on the Range, and Cold Creek Manor, have the menu (but not the logos) colored darker.
- On the 2004 DVD release of Bad Santa, after the menu forms and the filmreel disappears, the last part of the menu animation (after the logos fully form and the icon first appears) repeats itself.
- Sometimes, the filmreel appears in its inverted form (gold with blue holes; this inverts to the blue version when an option is selected), and on the earliest DVD releases, in silver with gray holes and orange with brown holes (the orange one only appears when a trailer is selected). The gold version is used on any 2009-10 DVD with the custom variants.
  - On the 2004 DVD issue of Rolie Polie Olie: Springy-Time Fun, depending on where the Sneak Peeks menu is accessed from, the filmreel icon is either red (Happy Hearts Day) or green (Easter Egg-Stravaganza). After selecting an option on either menu, it turns yellow.
  - On the 2004 DVD issues of The Haunted Mansion and Pokémon: Jirachi Wish Maker, the icon appears in the blue version, but when a menu option is selected, it switches to the orange version.
  - On the 2004 DVD issue of Power Rangers Dino Thunder: Volume 1 - Day of the Dino, when a trailer is selected, the filmreel icon turns from silver to light blue with gray holes.
  - On the 2004 DVD issue of Lizzie McGuire: StarStruck, the blue portions appear more purple.
  - On the 2004 DVD issue of The Golden Girls: The Complete First Season, the first page features the blue version, while the second page features the gold version.
  - On the 2004-05 DVD issues of Around the World in 80 Days and Porco Rosso, the filmreel icon is shaded differently.
  - On the 2005 DVD issue of The Last Shot, the second page features another unusual color scheme for the filmreel icon: When navigating the menu, the icon is in green. When selecting a preview, it turns gold. (The first page has the blue version.)
  - On the 2005 DVD issues of Hostage and Cursed, the icon is positioned in odd places: when highlighting "PLAY ALL," "MORE/BACK," or "MAIN MENU," the icon is placed partway through the arrows rather than above them, and when highlighting a trailer, the icon is placed next to the logos rather than on them.
  - On the 2005 DVD issue of My Neighbors the Yamadas, the blue version is used, except the foreground icon is redesigned in that the shape is smaller and "wings" are seen on both sides. (When selecting an option, the normal gold icon is used.)
  - On the 2007 DVD issue of DuckTales: Volume 3, the icon is in green, much like on The Last Shot, except on both pages. Also, when a preview is selected, it turns darker green.
- Some DVD releases have the logos animate at a choppier framerate, while others have them at a smoother rate.
- Certain DVDs only have one page of trailers. As a result, "MORE" is deleted.
- On the 2006 DVD release of Goal! The Dream Begins, the filmreel icon appears approximately 4 seconds into the menu animation.
- On In Search of Santa and Scrubs: The Complete Second Season, the vertical arrows are slightly extended on the first page to the point where a thin green line appears on the bottom of the screen, and when you go to the second page, the arrows shorten a bit until the line disappears. This is especially noticeable on widescreen TVs. It's also like this on The Ladykillers (2004) and Alias: The Complete Fourth Season, except with the horizontal arrows.
- On the 2005 DVD release of The Golden Girls: The Complete Third Season, if one goes to the second page, the light emanating from an icon representing a preview of the next season's then-forthcoming DVD release takes up the entire right half.
- On the 2008 DVD release of Home Improvement: The Complete Eighth Season, the filmreel icon is replaced with an orange house (based on the show's logo), with a red rooftop. When one of the options is clicked, the orange portion turns yellow. The menu itself is also brighter than usual.
- On the 2008 DVD release of The Muppet Show: Season 3, the filmreel icon is replaced with Wall-E from the film of the same name, which was promoted on the disc.
- On the two previously mentioned titles, Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas appears on the left side of the screen.
- On the 2008 DVD release of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody: Lip Synchin' in the Rain, the filmreel icon is replaced with an orange hotel key.
- In the summer of 2008, the menu was drastically enhanced. Here, the background looks slightly realistic (and the filmreels appear to have been placed against the background of the 2007 Blu-ray idents, judging by some brief flashing that occurs), the texts are in metallic silver, “Sneak Peeks” (also now in metallic silver) turns downward to face the viewer, the "PLAY ALL," "MORE/BACK," and "MAIN MENU" texts fade in once the logos are in place, and the arrows are thinner and spaced further apart.
  - A 1.33:1 version of this appears on the 2008 DVD release of Scrubs: The Complete Seventh Season, while the rest of the menus are presented in 1.85:1.
- On the 2008 DVD releases of City of Men and Greek: Chapter Two, the cursor is in red.
- On StarStruck, the menu is still.
- From 2009-10, the background, cursors, and text/arrow colors would vary depending on the release. The animation of “Sneak Peeks” remains the same (although some DVDs have different animation for the text), though some releases also leave off the arrows entirely. In some cases, you can see the filmreels. Here are some variants:
  - Up: A still of Carl Fredriksen's house flying upwards. Regular cursor, yellow text, no arrows.
  - Bolt: Over a orange colored background. Custom cursor, black text, yellow arrows (seen here)
  - The 70th Anniversary Platinum Edition of Pinocchio (1940): Over a still of two fox characters at a wall. Regular cursor, yellow text, no arrows (seen here)
  - Old Dogs: An iceberg with many penguins on it, in front of a mountain. Regular cursor, red text, no arrows.
  - The Proposal: The filmreel background from the earlier versions, tinted in teal with cream yellow bars at the top and bottom. Regular cursor, blue text, no arrows.
  - Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Mickey's Adventures in Wonderland: A forest scene animated in the style of the show, tinted in pink. Regular cursor, yellow text, no arrows.
  - G-Force: A grid shown through a monitor. Regular cursor, blue text, no arrows.
  - Surrogates: A computer program, with an outline of a person. Regular cursor, blue text, blue arrows.
  - Blindness: A grayscaled version of the normal menu. Regular cursor, black text, light gray arrows.
  - Swing Vote: The American flag. Here, "Sneak Peeks" is already there, and enclosed in a bar with the logos of the two major political parties. Plus, "PLAY ALL," "MORE/BACK," and "MAIN MENU" are in a different font. Custom cursor (a red star), blue text, no arrows.
  - Morning Light: An overhead shot of the sea, with a yacht sailing away and some compasses in the lower left and upper right corners. Regular cursor, yellow text, light blue arrows (although these are a little hard to see).
  - Happy Go Lucky: A beige background of clouds scrolling by. Custom cursor (purple peach), black text, yellow arrows.

FX/SFX: The coming down of the clip-on, the rectangles and lines moving in, and the spinning film reels. Some of the clip-ons, however, have the text animate differently or only show a still image with no animation at all. The custom "Feature Presentation" clip-on has excellent CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A somber 2-note flat electronic synth theme, with electronic beeping in the background, and a slight whoosh/choir near the end, with Brian Cummings or Beau Weaver announcing the clip-on.

Music/Sounds Variants:

The "Disney Interactive," "From Playhouse Disney," "Now Available for PSP," and Australian variations don't have the announcer.
The international "ON VIDEO & DVD" bumper is completely silent. The "Coming Soon TO THEATERS" and "Coming Soon TO OWN ON VIDEO & DVD" bumpers are also silent on the 2000-05 DVD releases of Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins and the original release of Sin City, as is the "Coming Soon TO OWN ON DVD" bumper on the 2003 DVD release of Daredevil vs. Spider-Man. (The VHS version of the former and the latter's other bumpers, however, use the normal audio.)
The standard "Feature Presentation" clip-on and the "Feature Program" clip-ons used a flat, somber 4-note synth theme culminating in a distant drumroll.
A version of the "Feature Presentation" bumper with Beau Weaver announcing Cummings' line “And now, our feature presentation.” at a slightly faster rate exists.
Another version of the "Feature Presentation" ID consists of Brian Cummings announcing his line in a cheerful tone of voice. This version appears on Walt Disney Gold Classic Collection VHS tapes and 2000-02 VHS releases of other family-friendly titles from WDHV and BVHE. It premiered on the Gold Classic Collection VHS release of Mulan (1998) and last appeared on The Adventures of Tom Thumb and Thumbelina and Monsters, Inc. This voiceover variant was also used on some of its custom IDs listed above and below.
On the Diamonds variant of the “Join Us...” clip-on, the ID is silent except for Tom Kane saying, "Join us after the feature for a special message from Kirk Douglas."
On the demo tape of Inspector Gadget 2, the exact same voiceover from Brian Cummings and music from the standard edition's animated version of the 1992-2006 Stay Tuned ID are heard instead. See this page for more info.
On the "After the Feature" variant, Tom Kane says, "Watch the trailers from writer/director Quentin Tarantino, coming up right after the feature." Instead of the standard flat music, a song from the film's soundtrack, "Battle Without Honor or Humanity" by Tomoyasu Hotei, is used in its place.
On the custom "FEATURE PRESENTATION" variant, the announcer is absent, and a majestic fanfare with a change in pitch at the very end is heard.
On post-2001 DVDs and titles with the “...DVD AND VIDEO”, “Now Available ON VIDEO” and “...TO OWN ON DVD” clip-ons, Cummings' voiceover is heard in the middle of the bumper instead of the beginning.
On most DVDs with the “Coming Soon ON DVD”, “Now Available TO OWN ON VIDEO & DVD”, and “Now Available ON DVD” clip-ons beginning in 2001, Cummings’ voiceover is more enthusiastic.
On DVDs with the “Now Available TO OWN ON DVD” clip-on, Cummings’ voiceover is more relaxed; more relaxed sounding voiceovers were also used for the "DVD & VIDEO" bumper variants that began usage in 2003. Strangely, the 2006 DVD release of Asphalt Wars instead uses the original voiceover.
On VHS up until 2003, as well as the 2002 DVD release of Max Keeble's Big Move, Cummings' voiceover is heard about half a second after the bumper begins. On most DVDs, there is a slight delay before the voiceover is heard on most clip-ons.
On the 2004-05 DVD releases of Open Range, The Haunted Mansion, and Prozac Nation, the audio for their respective "Coming Soon TO OWN ON DVD & VIDEO," "Coming Soon TO THEATERS," and "Now Available TO OWN ON DVD" clip-ons is out of sync.
The "Sneak Peeks" version had a brief shimmering sound when "Sneak Peeks" appears, then a deep but very calm synth theme (based on the regular idents' music) is heard, along with sound effects corresponding to the movie logos appearing. There are also several beeping sounds like those present in IDs used at the time. None for the still variant.
- On the 2004 DVD release of Rolie Polie Olie: Springy-Time Fun, a whimsical cue based on music from the show plays over the menu.
- On the 2004 DVD releases of The Lion King 1 1/2, Cold Creek Manor, Hope Springs, and Veronica Guerin, as well as a couple of DVDs from 2006 (Quack Pack: Volume 1 being one of them) and DVDs with the 2008 variant, the music is slightly longer, with each note being held for one beat longer.
- On the 2004 DVD release of The Haunted Mansion, most of the shimmering is omitted.
- On the 2004-08 DVD releases of Miracle, Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock, Lady and the Tramp: 50th Anniversary Platinum Edition, The Muppet Show: Season 2, and The Aristocats: Special Edition, the theme is one second out-of-sync.
- On the 2004 DVD release of Power Rangers Dino Thunder: Volume 1 - Day of the Dino, the same music as heard on the disc's other submenus plays.
- An even shorter version can be found on Around the World in 80 Days (2004), after the menu is fully animated, in which the very last split-second of the music plays and loops constantly.
- On DVDs released from January 2004-June 2005, there are no sound effects corresponding to the logos. On Where's Spot/Spot Goes to the Farm, Father of the Bride: 15th Anniversary Special Edition, Tilt: The Complete First Season, and Tarzan II, this variant plays in a repeated loop after the menu finishes animating. (It's also like this on People I Know, but only when visiting either page for the first time; after playing a trailer, the menu stays silent.) The last DVDs not to use any sound effects are Hostage and Cursed; starting with The Pacifier, sound effects were used for the logos, although a sound effect was first heard on the earlier Spider-Man: The Venom Saga, where a slamming sound is heard as the logo for Power Rangers SPD animates. Surprisingly, this variant was used on Toby Tyler, issued in August 2005, as well as the 2008 DVD release of Snow Buddies.
- On the 2005-07 DVD releases of Mulan II and Home Improvement: The Complete Sixth Season, the volume is lower than usual.
- On the 2007 DVD release of The Invisible, the sound effects heard on Primeval (corresponding to logos for Apocalypto, Ratatouille, Renaissance, The Lookout, and Roger Corman) play while the disc's own logos (for Wild Hogs, Ratatouille, Lost: The Complete Third Season, and Becoming Jane) animate, likely due to an editing mistake.
- On the 2007-09 DVD releases of 8 Simple Rules: The Complete First Season and Bunnytown: Hello Bunnies!, once again, the menu's theme loops after it fully forms, complete with the logos' sound effects.
- The 2009-10 variants each have their own custom music (example: on the 2009 DVD release of A Muppets Christmas: Letters to Santa, an instrumental version of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" plays). Notably, on the 2009 DVD release of Race to Witch Mountain, an epic orchestral fanfare repeats after the initial music plays, in a similar manner to Tarzan II. StarStruck also has its own loop.

Music/Sounds Trivia: The music score for this style of clip-on is entirely custom, composed by Walter Werzowa at Musikvergnuegen, who also composed the Intel leitmotif & its variants used beginning in 1994, the music of the 1998-2006 Buena Vista Home Entertainment logo, and the EW Scripps news music package used from 2009-2012.

Availability: Though the availability of each clip-on variant varies, the ID as a whole is really common, since it appeared on numerous VHS tapes and DVDs released under the Walt Disney family of labels (Buena Vista, Walt Disney, Touchstone, Miramax, Dimension, and Hollywood) during this time period. However, they do not appear on most early-to-mid-2000s Dimension Home Video VHS tapes (and possibly some Warren Miller tapes), the 2003 Miramax DVD release of Mouth to Mouth, or Disney DVDs that contain Disney's FastPlay.

The bumpers first appeared on the 1999 VHS releases of Disney's Annie and Miramax's The Very Thought of You, both released on the same day. The last VHS tapes with the primary "Feature Presentation" clip-on were Bambi II and the demo VHS of Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time.
The "Coming Soon to Theaters from Disney & Pixar" variants only appear on the original VHS releases of Toy Story 2 and Monsters, Inc., as well as the former's original DVD.
The "Disney Interactive" variant is seen on the 2000-03 VHS releases of Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins, Mickey's House of Villains, Sorority Boys, ESPN's Ultimate X: The Movie, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
The "Now in Theaters" variant was first seen on the 2000 VHS of Woman Wanted. Like with the Flashbang variant, it was only rarely used, but it can be found on the 2003 VHS and DVD releases of Bringing Down the House, the 2005 DVD release of Finding Neverland, and the 2005 VHS release of Darkness, among a few others. It was also apparently intended to be used on the 2000 Gold Classic Collection DVD of A Goofy Movie, preceding a trailer for Fantasia 2000, but both are hidden within the disc files and not used on the actual release (probably because of a release date delay or an authoring mistake).
The "ON VIDEO & DVD" variant is seen on UK/Irish and Greek DVDs.
The "Now Available Collector's Edition DVD" variant can be seen on the 2005 DVD release of The Great Raid.
The first DVD to use these bumpers is the original 2000 release of Tarzan, and the last to use them are the 2006 DVD releases of High School Musical: Remix Edition and Disney DVD Game World: Disney Dogs Edition - Blue Ribbon Challenge.
Some demo tapes, such as Swing and Music of the Heart, use the standard clip-ons instead of the "Previews" one. Conversely, the "Coming Soon TO THEATERS" clip-on appears on a few demo tapes, such as Jerry Seinfeld: Comedian and Moonlight Mile, alongside the "Previews" one.
The "VIDEO" variants were last seen in the summer of 2005, examples being A Lot Like Love and The Pacifier.
The earlier "Feature PROGRAM" version can be seen on some 2000 tapes, such as Out of the Box: Happy Holidays and the re-releases of the Winnie the Pooh: Storybook Classics and 101 Dalmatians: Christmas. This version reappeared on several tapes from 2005: Disney Princess - Princess Stories Volume 2, Cadet Kelly, My Scene Goes Hollywood: The Movie, Pooh's Heffalump Halloween Movie, Power Rangers S.P.D. VHS tapes, the demo tape of Bambi II, and The Even Stevens Movie. However, some of them are full-fledged movies.
The later "Feature Program" version is seen only on the 2002-04 VHS releases of Spider-Man: The Return of the Green Goblin, Schoolhouse Rock!: 30th Anniversary Edition, The Incredible Hulk (1996), Disney's Sing Along Songs: Brother Bear - On My Way, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: Planet of the Lost, and Disney’s Sing Along Songs: Home on the Range - A Little Patch of Heaven.
The Beau Weaver version of the "Feature Presentation" clip-on is extremely rare, as it was only seen on the 2000 VHS releases of Toy Story and Tarzan.
The custom "Feature Presentation" clip-on is uncommon. It appears on the 2001-05 VHS releases of Atlantis: The Lost Empire, all 2001-05 Platinum Edition releases, Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas: Special Edition, 2002 prints of the Gold Classic Collection reissue of Mary Poppins, and The Incredibles, among others.
The "Sneak Peek" clip-on always precedes the long trailer for The Lion King 1 1/2, and was seen on fall 2003 VHS releases like Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, The Music Man, and George of the Jungle 2 (their DVDs all skip it).
The "Sneak Peeks" version is, arguably, the most common of all, as it can be seen on many DVD releases of Buena Vista-owned properties from the period. However, since it is more of a menu than a bumper, it can only be accessed by selecting "SNEAK PEEKS" from the main menu of the DVD.
- The original variant was first seen on both Rollie Polie Olie: Springy-Time Fun (in still form) and Spot: Where's Spot/Spot Goes to the Farm (in animated form), and last appeared on Home on the Range. The shortened music officially began use on Ghosts of the Abyss.
- The second variant is the least common, having only been used for a few months in 2004, but it first appeared on Ella Enchanted.
- The third variant was used from the end of 2004 all the way until spring 2005, and was first seen on Around the World in 80 Days (2004).
- The fourth variant, which is the most common by far, was used from 2005-08. It debuted on Beyblade: The Movie - Fierce Battle and made its final appearances on Phineas and Ferb: The Fast and the Phineas and Wizards of Waverly Place: Wizard School.
- The fifth variant (which debuted two years after Disney's 1999-2006 bumpers were retired) was only used briefly, and can be seen on titles from the last half of 2008, beginning with College Road Trip and ending with The Secret of the Magic Gourd.
- This menu strangely doesn't appear on Pokémon Heroes, Alice in Wonderland: Masterpiece Edition, Winnie the Pooh: Springtime with Roo, Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over, the Miramax Collector's Series reissue of Rounders, Jersey Girl, MyScene Goes Hollywood: The Movie, the original release of Sin City, and Pixar DVDs from 2004-08, while some titles such as The Golden Girls: The Complete Second Season, Scrubs: The Complete First Season, and the original release of Apocalypto (reissued by Samuel Goldwyn Films in 2020) forgo previews (and therefore, this menu) entirely.
  - The only Pixar DVD with this menu was Up (2009) as other Pixar releases from the era had a custom menu (except Ratatouille and Pixar Short Films Collection Volume 1, as the menu (and the option in general) were missing).
- Also, this can be accessed on the 2005 DVD release of Sky High from both the regular menu option and as an Easter egg when the viewer highlights the bus window on the main menu, to the left of "SCENE SELECTION." On The Great Raid, released later that year, it can be accessed from the special features menu.
- This menu is usually on the first disc of a multi-disc set, but on most post-2006 TV releases such as seasons 2-4 of Lost, seasons 3 and 4 of Grey's Anatomy, Alias: The Complete Fifth Season, and the first two seasons of Ugly Betty and Brothers and Sisters, it appears on the last disc. (Releases of Home Improvement, The Golden Girls, and The Muppet Show, however, still kept it on the first disc, as did the first season of 8 Simple Rules.) It was also used on the second disc of the 2004 DVD releases of Cold Mountain and The English Patient.
Weirdly, the "Feature Presentation" clip-on doesn't appear on the 2000 VHS of Outside Providence.

Legacy: The quality of the clip-ons from this era of bumpers is wildly inconsistent, arguably more so than any of the other styles of bumpers. On a positive note, the subdued, soothing atmosphere marks this era of bumpers as a thankfully calmer and more welcoming turn after the tenure of the 1994 era of bumpers.

While some of the clip-ons properly match the layout and overall quality of the FP bumper of the time, other clip-ons are visibly not as good, and still other clip-ons look like they were made on a shoestring budget.
As for the earlier "Feature Program" version, this bumper has been criticized as a rush job by some, due to the still animation and the smaller "PROGRAM" text not in the gold bar, both of which contrast significantly with most bumpers from the era. Presumably, this was a placeholder for the previously mentioned bumper, but even by those standards, it's still considered sloppy. The later “Feature Program” version can be considered an improvement over the previous one as more effort was put into it, although the earlier variant was used more often.
For the custom "Feature Presentation" clip-on, the fanfare and the fast pace can catch some viewers off guard, even those who expected the original "Feature Presentation" bumper, but it is safely suitable.
For the "Sneak Peeks" version, the 2004-06 DVD releases of Duplex, Hu$tle, and Grey's Anatomy: The Complete First Season use this menu despite having only one preview, and the first two still bother to use a "PLAY ALL" option, therefore providing two ways to select the sole trailer.

International Bumpers

United Kingdom

1st Bumper (1983) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: On a dark blue background, we see this text, in a white Helvetica font, fade in and out: "COMING TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU SOON".

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the fade-in and the fade-out.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Ultra rare. This bumper is only known to appear after the movie on the 1983 British rental VHS tapes of The Last Flight of Noah's Ark and Escape to Witch Mountain, before a reissue trailer for The Jungle Book (1967).

2nd Bumper (1985) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: On a blue background, we see the cheaply chyroned text: "SEE THIS OUTSTANDING DISNEY FILM AT A CINEMA NEAR YOU SOON." The text is displayed in a narrow robotic font.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. Seen on the original 1985 UK rental VHS releases of Robin Hood (1973), Hunting Instinct, and Tex.

Legacy: Not only is the text cheaply chyroned, but it is also off center. The LCD-like text is also poorly done.

3rd Bumper (1986-1995)

See the 1986 Walt Disney Home Video logo for the description.

4th Bumper (1986-1993) (Touchstone Home Video)

See the 1986 Touchstone Home Video logo for the description.

5th Bumper (1986-1987) (Walt Disney Home Video)

See the Disney Premiere Cinema logo for the description.

6th Bumper (October 12, 1989) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the words "COMING THIS CHRISTMAS TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU".

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. Seen only at the beginning of the 1989 British retail VHS releases of Sleeping Beauty, preceding a trailer for Oliver & Company.

7th Bumper (1990-1993)

Bumper: On a blue background, we see the words "COMING SOON TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU", "NOW SHOWING AT A CINEMA YOU" or "COMING TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU THIS SUMMER".

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the fade-in and the fade-out.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. It debuted on the 1990 British rental VHS releases of Turner & Hooch. It also appeared on the 1991-93 British retail VHS releases of The Jungle Book (1967), The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast (1991), and The Rescuers Down Under.

8th Bumper (1991)

Bumper: On a black background, the gold and shiny words "STAY TUNED" are seen in a Rockwell font.

Trivia: Interestingly, not only does this have an American-sounding announcer, but it happens to Brian Cummings, whose voiceover here (mentioned below) was shortened for use in a couple of American IDs. Cummings would also perform the voiceover for another stay tuned bumper on the 1994 South Korean VHS release of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

FX/SFX: A shine going across the text.

Music/Sounds: None, except Brian Cummings saying "Stay tuned after our feature, for a look at other great titles available from Walt Disney Home Video." After that, there's three seconds of silence before the bumper fades out.

Availability: Rare; as of now, it can be seen only on the 1991 UK VHS release of Ducktales The Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp.

Legacy: As previously mentioned, this stay tuned bumper is noteworthy for containing an American-sounding announcer on a British VHS release of a Disney movie. This led to various YouTube accounts creating their own 1991 VHS openings of Disney films that would include this stay tuned bumper and then WDSHE’s 1989-92 Feature Presentation bumper.

9th Bumper (1991)

Bumper: We see a light-dark blue gradient background with one of the following captions "COMING SOON FOR YOU TO OWN" or "NOW AVAILABLE FOR YOU TO OWN" flying in from the top right, and settle in the middle for a few seconds. It then flips up, and rotates clockwise to exit the screen.

FX/SFX: The flying, flipping and rotating of the background.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Very rare, as it only lasted for a year. Seen on a few Buena Vista and Disney UK retail VHS tapes from the time, such as An Innocent Man, Three Men and a Little Lady, and the original 1991 UK retail VHS releases of The Little Mermaid.

10th Bumper (1991-1992)

Bumper: On a blue background, there is a note displayed on the screen, which says "STAY TUNED FOR MORE NEWS OF DISNEY'S VIDEO RELEASES AFTER THE MAIN FEATURE".

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on UK VHS releases of the era including Disney's Gummi Bears: Hot Little Tot, Disney's Gummi Bears: A Sky Full of Gummies, The Rescuers Down Under and Blackbeard's Ghost.

11th Bumper (1991-1995) (Hollywood Pictures Home Video)

See the Hollywood Pictures Home Video logo for the description.

12th Bumper (1991-1993) (Buena Vista Home Video)

See the 1988 Buena Vista Home Video logo for the description.

13th Bumper (1992-1996) (Jim Henson Video)

See the Jim Henson Video for the description.

14th Bumper (1993-2004)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the clip-ons appearing in a blue gradient font:

COMING SOON
SOON AVAILABLE TO OWN ON VIDEO
NOW AVAILABLE
AVAILABLE TO BUY
FEATURE PRESENTATION (recycled from the 10th American bumper)

Variants:

The color scheme varies for each clip-on.
The "COMING SOON" clip-on is still.
The "AVAILABLE TO BUY" and "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-ons animate like the U.S./Canadian counterpart of the era.
The "NOW AVAILABLE" and "SOON AVAILABLE TO OWN ON VIDEO" clip-ons animate in a similar fashion, except the texts slightly zoom in during the animation. The former clip-on is shown in letterboxed format, while the latter clip-on is shown on open matte.
On the 1997 retail UK VHS releases of The English Patient, the "NOW AVAILABLE" clip-on is bold, tinted in white, and a still image. In addition, the text is arranged horizontally and most of the outlining is gone.

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the animation.

Music/Sounds:

The "COMING SOON" and "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-ons, as well as the 1997 edition of the "NOW AVAILABLE" clip-on, contain a majestic horn & string-driven fanfare - possibly an alternate take of the 1991 WDHV logo theme. To make room for the music, these clip-ons stay on screen for three additional seconds. This music was first heard on the 1993 rental UK VHS releases of Aspen Extreme.
Both the "SOON AVAILABLE TO OWN ON VIDEO" clip-on and the 1998 edition of the "NOW AVAILABLE" clip-on contain the 1991 WDHV logo jingle.

Music/Sounds Variants:

On the 2003 UK VHS releases of Inspector Gadget (1999), the slower version of the logo music is used on the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-on.
On the 1993 UK rental VHS releases of The Distinguished Gentleman (the first tape to use the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-on), a completely different majestic fanfare reminiscent of the second half of the Hollywood Pictures logo jingle is used on the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-on.
On the 1993-94 UK rental VHS releases of 3 Ninjas and Born Yesterday and the 2003 UK retail VHS releases of The Magical World of Winnie the Pooh, the 1991 WDHV jingle is heard on both the "COMING SOON" and "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-ons.
On the 2000 UK retail VHS releases of Spot's Show and Other Musical Adventures, the music from other international bumpers is heard on the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-on.
On the 1996-98 UK rental VHS releases of Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead, Con Air, The Preacher's Wife, and The Wings of the Dove, the Jim Henson Video logo jingle is heard on the "AVAILABLE TO BUY" clip-on.
On the 1998 UK rental VHS releases of The 6th Man, the 1991 WDHV logo jingle is heard on the "AVAILABLE TO BUY" clip-on.

Availability: Common. Seen on the rental and retail editions of many Buena Vista and Disney VHS releases from Great Britain.

These clip-ons were first used on the rental editions of VHS releases such as Aspen Extreme, 3 Ninjas, Born Yesterday, Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey, A Far Off Place, The Mighty Ducks are the Champions (known as The Mighty Ducks in America), Hocus Pocus, The Three Musketeers (1993), My Father the Hero, The Adventures of Huck Finn, Cool Runnings, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, Lightning Jack, Little Buddha, Pulp Fiction, Iron Will, and In the Army Now.
Although the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-on was introduced on the 1993 UK rental VHS releases of The Distinguished Gentleman, the remaining bumpers didn't debut until later that year, with the UK rental VHS releases of Aspen Extreme.
The first Disney-branded retail releases to contain the "FEATURE PRESENTATION" clip-on were Around the World with Timon and Pumbaa and Dining Out with Timon and Pumbaa from 1997, followed by Toy Story: Collector’s Edition from 1999. This clip-on appeared on subsequent Disney retail VHS tapes from the UK such as Toy Story 2, Tarzan (1999), The Legend of Tarzan and Power Rangers: Wild Force videotapes, Dinosaur (2000), Monsters, Inc., Finding Nemo, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Treasure Planet, Freaky Friday (2003), Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, and Kim Possible: The Secret Files; most of these releases also included the "COMING SOON" and "NOW AVAILABLE" clip-ons.
The first Disney-branded retail VHS release to contain the "COMING SOON" clip-on was A Bug's Life from 1999.
VHS tapes with the "NOW AVAILABLE" clip-on include the rental and retail editions of Disney-branded VHS tapes from the 2000s.
VHS tapes with the "AVAILABLE TO BUY" clip-on include the UK rental releases of Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead, Con Air, and The 6th Man.

Legacy:These are considered by some more unnerving than the American versions.

15th Bumper (March 15, 1993) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: On a blue gradient background, we see the words "Coming this Autumn to a cinema near you" in a yellow font.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Extremely rare. This was only seen on the 1993 British retail VHS releases of Peter Pan (1953).

See the Touchstone Home Entertainment#1989 Touchstone Home Video logo for the description.

17th Bumper (1993-1996) (Walt Disney Home Video/Disney Videos)

Bumper: On a blue background, we see the words "STAY TUNED" in yellow/orange gradient lettering.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Depending on the variant:

On 1993-1994 releases, a British announcer, most likely either Christopher Eccleston or Pat Sharp, says "There'll be more news about the magical new releases from Disney Video, coming up after the film."
On 1994-1995 releases, John Sachs says the same text as before, except "Disney Video" is instead "Walt Disney Home Video."
On 1995-1996 releases, John Sachs says "Stay tuned for news of great future releases from Disney Videos, after this feature."

18th Bumper (February 7, 1994-2005)

Bumper: On a blue background, we see the words "COMING TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU" or "NOW SHOWING AT A CINEMA NEAR YOU" in Optima font.

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the bumper fading in and out.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Uncommon. It premiered on the 1994 UK rental VHS releases of Born Yesterday, and can also be seen on many titles available for rental and sale such as The Jungle Book (1994), Mulan (1998), Toy Story (1999 Collector's Edition release), Mighty Joe Young (1998), The Lion King II: Simba's Pride, The Waterboy, Treasure Planet, End of Days, Bringing Out the Dead, and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

19th Bumper (August 22, 1994-October 17, 1994) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: On a blue background, we see either the words "COMING SOON TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU" (in Gill Sans Narrow) or "NOW SHOWING AT A CINEMA NEAR YOU" (in Univers Narrow).

FX/SFX: The bumper fading in and out.

Music/Sounds: John Sachs says one of the following:

Coming Soon: "Watch out for this feature presentation, coming soon to a cinema near you."

20th Bumper (January 30, 1995-2001) (Disney Videos)

See the Disney Videos logo for the description.

21st Bumper (1995-1996)

Bumper: On a dark blue background, we see this text, in a white Helvetica font: "ALSO AVAILABLE TO RENT".

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the bumper fading in and out.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Extremely rare, considering that only three British rental VHS tapes contained it. This bumper debuted on the 1995 British rental VHS tapes of Lightning Jack and Little Buddha, preceding a trailer for six Buena Vista-owned family movies available to rent on VHS (A Far Off Place, The Mighty Ducks are the Champions [known as The Mighty Ducks in America], 3 Ninjas, Honey, I Blew Up the Kid, California Man [known as Encino Man in America], and Captain Ron). Because the Blockbuster/Ritz editions of the 1994 British rental VHS releases of Cool Runnings, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit and The Three Musketeers, as well as the non-Blockbuster/Ritz editions of the former two, were released before this bumper premiered, they only contain the aforementioned trailer. It made its final appearance on the 1996 British rental VHS releases of From Dusk Till Dawn, preceding the trailer for Things to Do in Denver When You’re Dead.

22nd Bumper (March 27, 1995-1996) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Bumper: Same as the 17th bumper with the text "COMING TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU", but with a drop shadow.

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the bumper fading in and out.

Music/Sounds: John Sachs says, "Watch out for this feature presentation, coming soon to a cinema near you", the same audio from the 18th bumper.

Availability: Uncommon. It was seen on the 1995-96 British VHS retail releases of The Aristocats, The Lion King (1994), Sleeping Beauty, and Pinocchio (1940).

23rd Bumper (1995-1996) (Disney Interactive)

See the 1st Disney Interactive logo for the description.

24th Bumper (1996-November 23, 1998) (Disney Videos)

Bumper: On a purple gradient background, we see the clip-on text in orange Arial Bold font, which shines:

Coming soon to a cinema near you
Now showing at a cinema near you
Coming soon from [Buena Vista Home Entertainment Ltd logo]
Stay Tuned

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the bumper fading in, the shining of the text, and the bumper fading out.

Music/Sounds: John Sachs enthusiastically says the following clip-on text:

"Coming soon to a cinema near you."
"Now showing at a cinema near you."
"Coming soon from Buena Vista Home Entertainment."
"Stay tuned for news of great future releases from Disney Videos, after this feature."

Availability: Seen on several Disney UK retail VHS tapes.

The cinema bumpers are much common to find, and appears on the British VHS retail releases of Pocahontas, 101 Dalmatians (1961), Toy Story, The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996), Cinderella (1950), Peter Pan (1953) (1998 re-release), Hercules (1997), Lady and the Tramp (1955) (1998 re-release), Flubber, and The Little Mermaid (1998 re-release).
The Buena Vista Home Entertainment bumper is very rare as it was seen on the 1996 UK retail VHS releases of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
The Stay Tuned bumper is also rare, seen on a few Disney UK VHS retail tapes from 1996 and 1997, such as Aladdin and the King of Thieves.

Legacy: John Sachs’ voiceover on each clip-on is more energetic than on previous IDs.

25th Bumper (1996-2000) (Disney Interactive)

See the 1st Disney Interactive logo for the description.

26th Bumper (April 29, 1996) (Walt Disney Pictures)

Legacy: A bland bumper.

27th Bumper (1999)

Bumper: We see Geri's chess board from the Geri's Game short with the words "Stay Tuned After the Feature", an image of Geri who is wearing glasses and folding his arms with a smile, the Pixar print logo and the Geri's Game logo superimposed over it.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Music from Geri's Game plays in the background as Mark Elliot says "Stay tuned after the feature program, for Pixar's Academy award winning animated short: Geri's Game."

Availability: Seen only on the UK VHS of A Bug's Life.

28th Bumper (1999)

Bumper: On a purple background, we see a notice in gold and in Times New Roman font reading:

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen only on Toy Story: Special Collector's Edition.

29th Bumper (1999)

Bumper: On a purple gradient background, we see the orange words "Stay Tuned", which shine and then fade to the words "A Special Feature Will Follow After This Programme". These words also shine and continue doing so into the bumper fadeout.

FX/SFX: The words shining and fading.

Music/Sounds: The music used in U.K. Disney coming attraction and feature presentation bumpers from the era.

Availability: Extremely rare. Seen only on a retail VHS release of Winter on Watership Down.

30th Bumper (2001-2005)

Bumper: On a black background, we see the white words "BONUS FOOTAGE AFTER THE FEATURE" in a Garamond font.

FX/SFX: None.

FX/SFX: The words zooming out, the rays, the flash.

Music/Sounds: A calm orchestral tune, followed by a whoosh.

Availability: Less common but seen on later British Disney, Miramax, and Touchstone videocassettes available for rental and sale, such as Brother Bear, Freaky Friday (2003), Home on the Range, Holes, Mulan II, The Haunted Mansion, Starsky & Hutch, The Incredibles, King Arthur, and The Ladykillers.

Australia
