He continued to wear a similar outfit in other games released prior to and during the JumpStart Advanced series debut, though oftentimes the 'JS' on his sweater was dropped. In JumpStart Around the World, Frankie began wearing an outfit consisting of a blue collar red sweater with yellow trim, a V-neck, and the yellow letters "JS" on it. There are several minor changes made to his body, such as his legs being shorter and wider, his ears being floppier, his eyes and nose being slightly smaller, and his snout being thinner. During this era, he was also sometimes depicted with either a blue or brown collar. In many late 90s games, such as JumpStart Math for First Graders, JumpStart Reading for First Graders, and JumpStart 1st Grade (1999), he wears a red vest. He also had long, thin arms and a long body. In JumpStart 1st Grade (1995), Frankie originally had brown fur and wore only a green collar.
