Toshiba Video Software (Japan)

(Early 1980s)

Logo: On a black background with several moving silver-blue lines that overlap, we see "TOSHIBA" in its corporate font rotating to the center of the screen, leaving a 3D rainbow trail as it does so. The text flashes and becomes shiny gray as the background changes to navy blue.

FX/SFX: The text rotating, the background moving, the flashing, the shining.

Music/Sounds: A strange synth-horn tune combined with a female choir.

Availability: Seen on some anime laserdiscs of the time. Was also spotted on a Japanese VHS release of William Malone's 1985 sci-fi film Creature.

Editor's Note: None.
