1st ID (November 20, 2004-2012)

Provided ID could not be validated.O6oy2tFWqCU}}

Nicknames: "Spinning Ball", "Blue Ball of Excitement", "Inside The Loading Ball"

Logo: In a blue background, a blue ball spins and a particular character from a TV show with the word "> ahora." After that, the ball spins to the original shape. Then a URL linked to the Spanish Boing website appears.

Trivia: This was the replacement of the second set of IDs that Boing used from 2011 to 2016, due to the fact that many Spanish viewers didn't like the second logo. Another notable note for the 3rd logo is that it doesn't have mascots.

Variants:

On holidays, the blue ball opens up with a loading screen, plus a promo or trailer is played.
Sometimes, the bumpers also includes the word "SEGUIMOS" at the beginning.

FX/SFX: CGI animation, plus almost a blend of live-action and 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: Multiple moods and genres were used, including techno, disco, rock, and others. Soundbite of characters can be heard.

Availability: Extinct, replaced by the 4th ID on March 7, 2016.

Editor's Note: None.

Nicknames: "Better Together", "Insieme è meglio", "Boing Goes Fusion", "Boing Fusion", "Mascot Fusion", "Mascot Swap", "Bodyswap", "Headswap", "Redesigned Mascot"

Logo: When a mascot was standing on a plain-colored background, a slinky-shaped bouncing ball turned one mascot into an extraordinary type of mascot. After that, it merges into the Boing logo.

Trivia: On February 2016, a teaser for the March 7 rebrand was shown. This features all the returning mascots of the channel in a new form.

FX/SFX: CGI animation that's designed by LUMBRE.

Music/Sounds: It starts with a Looney Tunes-esque descend sound and a glass-breaking sound can be heard, following an electronic and techno-based soundtrack, plus ends with a five-note jingle (in similar to Cartoon Network's four-note jingle).

Availability: Still in use as of March 7, 2016 (beginning with the Italian feed).

Editor's Note: None.
