2nd logo

(Mid 1990's - 1999)

Logo: On a gold background, we again see the gold circle. The "X" flies around and finally gets in the circle. The filmstrip, this time on a brown color, moves around the "X" and stops in the same form as the last logo. Several white dots suddenly appear and stick to the filmstrip, forming the letters "Luk Internacional S.A.". A green monkey with an antena in his head and a white T-shirt with red stripes appears and smiles below the logo.

·Sometimes the part were the X flies around is cut.

·Early episodes of the spanish dub of "Shin-Chan" have a gold plate with the words "XX Aniversario".
