Medal Group (Argentina)

1st Logo (1980s)
ZGlBrorD2o8 Logo: Fading from a blue-purple screen, we see a smoky blue setting and the back of a black Noblex-brand CRT TV and a wooden TV stand that it rests on. A girl with black hair worn in pigtails, a pink long-sleeved patterned shirt, a pink pair of pants and white socks and shoes then walks in from the left looking at a VHS tape before turning and spotting the TV. She then begins walking towards the TV and its stand and crouches to insert the VHS tape while holding one hand on the TV stand. We then cut to a shot showing the front of the TV and its stand, the former of which is displaying static and the latter containing a black VHS player, also Noblex-brand, and many VHS cases below it, and the girl proceeds to insert the tape before pressing the play button. We then cut upwards to the TV, which briefly displays a violet screen that fades to reveal, on a red background, an increasingly-glowing red circle containing the white initials "Times New Roman" and horizontal lines above and below the initials, and the camera slowly zooms into the TV during this. We then cut to a shot of the logo's animation as the glow increases to the point that the background becomes entirely white. A few moments later, the glow around the logo then shrinks away to reveal a blue background before the logo fades away entirely.

FX/SFX: Mostly live-action.

Music/Sounds: Ominous wind noises and a 3-note Moog synthesizer for the forming of the MG logo. A female announcer is also heard speaking the following throughout the logo: "Nos estamos internando, en el universo televideo. El es fascinante mundo de la imagen. Medal Group. Imagen de calidad, el es anuncia."

Availability: Extremely rare, seen at least one VHS tape released by the company, which is Combat Shock. It might also appear on Ninja Force of Assassins.

Editor's Note: None.
