The Bizarre Conspiracy Surrounding Elemental Hero Air Neos - บันเทิง
There's no conspiracy. Air Neos just wanted to focus on himself and his family
True
facts
Especially after that big scandal.
ARE AIR NEOS AND AQUA NEOS STILL FRIENDS?
@@__-be1gk I hope so. Air and aqua always had the closest bond
It gets even weirder when you realize Master Duel is based off code from older Yugioh games, meaning Air Neos was likely intentionally cut
@JOSE MARIO PEROZO FUENMAYOR I think the issue about Chaos Magician is that the artist of the card is causing some problems. At least that's what I read on the internet
@@NexxOmega are they getting a cut?
@JOSE MARIO PEROZO FUENMAYOR the missing speedroids are because for some reason they only released half of synchro storm
I mean... obviously it was intentionally cut lol
@JOSE MARIO PEROZO FUENMAYOR whats chaos magician? that doesnt exist. theres magician of chaos, magician of black chaos, dark magician of chaos, magician of black chaos MAX (which isnt in master duel) and just newly released and therefore not yet to be in master duel, illusion of chaos.
all of those current legal copies that arent latest released, except for MAX, are also currently in master duel as of this comment.
the only other card i can think of is chaos sorcerer which isnt related to dark magician, nor has been prevented from use and is also well known with much play like dark magician of chaos...
since blue eyes chaos max dragon is in the game, im guessing you mean the max of dark magician? the yugioh fandom claims kazuki takahasi has created that design himself though
The whole "They won't reprint it because it is bad" loses water when you remember that in the Legendary Collection GX set they reprinted the N.E.X. fusions. Cards so bad they only gave us two of the possible six. They reprinted those to the joy of only hard-core collectors and GX fans, so there has to be some other reason they refuse to publicly disclose. Which stinks because I want to build a new Neos deck.
Also because air neos otk was a thing
Speaking of which: We need the other 4 N.E.X. Fusions. Make them good and maybe people might be willing to splash a Neo-Spacian in a HERO deck besides maybe Aqua Dolphin.
@@DeitySkullKid There is no way that was a relevant thing in the game's history.
@@PhoenixLance13 it wasn't super relevant but it is usually given as a reason why it's not in duel links since Air Neos can pretty easily OTK.
the fact its literally the best out of the neos non triple fusions
I'm glad more people are starting to question why this card never got a reprint after 15 or so years. Air Neos was always my favorite of the contact fusions so it's a shame I'll need to dish out about $100 for a copy
Imagine if Konami decides to reprint it the moment i purchased it
I had 1 copy that got messed up due to me being a stupid kid. So I had to get a brand new one which made my wallet cry.
@@pokuhmoo9415 if you are unlucky then do it, sacrifice your money so we get him back
@Gucci Crimson Well it's your lucky day because Flame Wingman is actually getting reprinted in Hidden Arsenal which comes out in like a month
I have an Elemental Hero Air Neos I'm not doing anything with. Pulled it back in the day. Beautiful card.
Imo, best looking Neos fusion.
Jaden: I don’t remember the last time I was happy
Season 2 or earlier probably.
@@runningoncylinders3829 surprisingly almost all the main villains got no consequences for their actions
Kagemaru is old but he is living free
Sartorious free
Crowler: well he was turned into a doll to be honest
Yubel: well she won she is living inside Jaden
And Fujisawa
@@guillermosierracuellar9812 Crowler as a villain? More of an antivillain, worst he did was try to tear down Slifer Red dorm to help the school's image and put pressure on slackers. I'm fairly certain Viper and Adrian (and maybe The D) got some kind of punishment in the end.
@@runningoncylinders3829 remember crowler was the one that hired Titan remember Titan kidnapped Alexis which let to Jaden and syrus almost being expelled
He'll be happy when Air Neos gets reprinted.
You can try to hide him Konami, but we see him we stan him and we support this forgotten neos fusion!!! #JusticeForAirNeos
Free my homie Air Neos
Dicks out for Air Neos
It was first #FreemyniggaStratos and now it's #JusticeForAirNeos
Free Air Neos
I'm a proud owner of a 1st edition Ultimate Rare Air Neos. Had it since I was a kid and it's still in very good condition. Absolutely love how it looks.
Sitting on good wad of cash there.
same
Had one just sold it last year
I managed to get one for £25 which is very cheap considering how much there worth
Now do you sell before they eventually reprint the card, or hang on to it as the value increases each year?
Or just keep it because you cherish Air Neos =)
I don't mind air neos getting a retrain or an upgrade that diverges away enough from the original design so we can actually have an air neos
Also air neos wings does show in in instant contact
I feel like it's more likely that the Neos in that picture is Honest Neos
I mean it less likely causr they went out of their way to make it vague
You can barely see his wings, unlike the scene its referencing where you can see the upper body of air neos.
@@dumon4264 the art is literally taken from that OP, it's just due to this issue that they had to hide 90% of Air Neos.
Also unless ur brain and your brain even more dysfunctional than this, the wings arent even the same
@@powerfulberry237 bro tf is wrong with you? I just made a suggestion, no need to get all rude about it
i was a big fan of the Chronos and Judai graduation duel and loved the combos he used with air neos. I was super confused as to why it wasn’t in master duel
Wait what?
@@ajayusspiritus6955 Are you asking about Jaiden using Air Neos or him not being in Master Duel
@@muhammedbadjie1960 about Jaden, i don't remember him using Air Neos against Chronos
@@ajayusspiritus6955 Probably cause it was a season 4 duel
@@muhammedbadjie1960 ah, i don't remember much from season 4
I feel like there’s something to this. Konami reprints garbage cards all the time, omitting this is clearly deliberate
Definitely
Every neos card has been reprinted besides the red bird
After looking into it a bit, I can confirm that the wings behind Neos ARE Air Neos'. The design's a little different for the wings themselves but, if you look closely above Neos' shoulder, you can see the little yellow "wing cuff" from Air Neos. I compared it to both Honest Neos and Rainbow Neos (the only other Neos' I know with wings) and it most certainly was not them. As to why only the wings are there and why they look different, I honestly have no idea. But I believe they are supposed to be Air Neos' wings.
Divine Neos also has wings, but its not the same either
Yeah I see those too. It's like he's hiding behind everyone
@@TheRealEvilRoy Aww, he's shy.
Pretty sure those are neos wingman's
Something even weirder is that on the artwork of instant contact, you can kinda see wings behind neos. So, its implying that air neos is there, but it doesnt show him.
maybe they want us to believe it's honest neos... but the wings are more stylized xd where the hell did those wings come from in ... wake up... xd it's absurd
@@jyukarozhana You're actually right, The armor on the wings of Air Neos are gold, it's silver with gold trim on Honest Neos. So those wings 100% belong to Air Neos
On the topic of instant contact, there's one bit of misunderstanding in this video. Technically, Air Neos is in the card. He's the only Neos Fusion that has wings and you can clearly see in the background, there are wings... But the wings are pure white instead of white and pink. So Konami clearly is trying to hide Air Neos, but they still wanted Air neos, so they just threw in a generic set of wings to represent Air Neos.
Rainbow Neos has wings. Divine Neos too.
@@ArielBnhm Yes but neither of those are borne of Neo-Spacians.
@@MrJoeyWheeler true for Rainbow Neos. False for Divine Neos. The point wasn’t that, though.
I like to believe that the punch from Ultimate Golem Banish Air Neos out of existent
Ive seen multiple people say that the reason for air neos not being reprinted is that the person that was responsible for its illustration had passed away, and that konami no longer holds the rights to the artwork.
Out of respect would be nice but i thought every artist signs their rights away when working on card art for konami.
It’s idiotic that people think Air Neos isn’t good. It’s arguably the best of the the Single OG fusions.
I would argue Grand Neos is better but Air Neos is still a really good one
I would rank 1th: Air Neos; 2th: Grand Neos; 3th: Aqua Neos (for the hand destruction effect), and then forget about all the other three
Air Neos' effect is clunkier than most of the other Neos fusions because you need to somehow manage both your's and your opponent's life points in order to maximize his efficiency. For him to be at absolute top performance, you need to have a huge gap between your lps. And if that gap is that big in the first place, chances are the last thing you need is a beater that weakens himself the second he deals damage. Flare Neos is arguably the better offensive fusion just for his effect that you can work with more easily. This isn't helped by Air Hummingbird's effect being completely counterintuitive to Air Neos' effect by giving you life points, indirectly making the fusion weaker.
@@arthurhilgert2707 2th and 3th? It's 2nd and 3rd
@@leonglitch hes not a good enough of a player to answer that
Air Neos definitely deserves a reprint soon because I think it’s a great card and one of my favourite Neo Fusion that Judai used and I really hope it’ll get reprinted soon
*Reprint not retrain A retrain is a totally new card and a reprint is just a new copy of the card
@@Mr.IDK07 Oh my bad. Thanks
Other, even more goofy theory: The kid of some Konami director lost a duel/tournament because of Air Neos and the snooty brat made their parent promise they will never print the card or include it in media ever. (But my guess is it's probably a ripoff of some obscure Kamen rider-type design or something and the owner has made a stink).
My little brother watches kamen rider and I know all of them so i think it's safe to say that he isn't based off of a kamen rider. Probably some other Japanese TV show, but I highly doubt it because elemental hero neos himself is clearly based of the anime Guyver and he didn't have any legality issues.
It's Me, Steve Yeah the Kamen Rider inspired monsters in Yu-Gi-Oh! are the Masked HEROES. Masked HERO - Anki is performing a Rider Kick, and all of them have similar designed masks.
Something that I noticed because of this video: In the art of Instant Contact, wings that look very close to Air Neos' are right there behind Glow Neos and Flare Neos. You can see the feather details next to Glow Neos' head and in that open spot between Base, Flare, and Grand Neos. You can also see the tan part at the base of his wings right behind Base Neos' right shoulder. The only reasons why these are not %100 Air Neos' wings are the feathers are white instead of red and we don't see the blue and red parts (but based on the position I'd say those would be covered by Glow and Flare anyway). It's almost like Air Neos WAS part of the artwork but was later poorly removed.
What i find weird is how they didn't try and make a new one with similar effects. We've had plenty of Neos support over the years and they had plenty of chances to create a Sky Neos or something.
If it were an artwork issue, why not just make an alternate art?
@@WarpChaos i believe art wasnt the issue, otherwise they would have censored/changed it a long time ago.
@@dspace4514 Same with the name then. They've changed card names before.
@@WarpChaos That's what I said. Look at Knightmare Unicorn's new artwork, or all the Dark Magician, Blue Eyes and Red Eyes alternatives. They could easily get a new design, or just retrain it.
@@marktwayne9796 Yeah
I heard a theory that the artist that drew Air Neos died shortly after the cards release or something and due to Konami not officially owning the copyright to the art and the artist being dead the rights to Air Neos's art fell into Copyright Limbo. Again, I'm not sure about how legitimate that could be as it seems dubious that something like that could happen or that at the very least Konami would have slipped up to allow such a thing to happen to them.
If they released the card they had rights already
They can easily release an alternative art.
Even if something like this was the case, they have the rights to the character design so they could easily release an alternate art
While the legality of Air Neos is the most popular rumor, it's a completely baseless one.
To me it seems impossible that the issue is a legal one, because Air Neos was included in the 2019 video game. If it was about legal rights, there's no real reason why they would be able to include it in Legacy of the Duelist, but not Master Duel or any of the Tag Force games.
I could see this being true. Maybe not reprinting out of respect for the artist, or something like. 🤔
I know it's nowhere near this conspiracy, but I always found it weird that the Rikka cards only had Rikka Queen Strenna reprinted (in the Tin of Ancient Battles) and none of their other cards reprinted, while all the Eldlich and Adamancipator cards (both archetypes coming from the exact same deck builder pack, Secret Slayers) got reprinted in the Tin of Ancient Battles, and Maximum Gold: El Dorado.
no one plays rikka and they all cost like 1-2 dollors
The Fortune Lady cards weren't reprinted from Rising Rampage either.
@@mauritiusblackwell3990 I wonder why? What do they have against these cards?
@@chronic-joker I play Rikka, and their best card costs about $20.
@@chrisshorten4406 did they get evenly matched on discount? no for real 20 dollars in this card game is chump change.
here is my theory on why Air Neos isn't being reprinted or even represented anymore: its possible that they had a shortage of artist around the time they were designing the cards for Strike Of Neos and so they had to hire an outside artist, its possible that this was a rushed contract and so instead of legal saying Konami owned all version of Air Neos and its artwork and they could do whatever with it, it might have only said that Konami only had permission to print that card and its artwork in the set Strike of Neos, and that is why Air Neos has only be "reprinted" twice, once in strike of neo packs for the six samurai special editions and the other for Korean strike of Neos re-released boxes. This would explain why it has never been reprinted, why they cant show the artwork anywhere else, and why master duel and duel links do not have this card, the only loose end is the card does show up in legacy of the duelist and link evolution, that could be chalked up to a mistake and since those games were not really popular, it just flew under the radar.
If that was the case then Konami could have bought the rights for the art work years ago.
@@lordvika2526 I'm not so sure they would, think about what the reward is for spending hundreds or maybe even thousands to buy the rights back, there really are none. Air Neos is only as iconic as it is because of its lack of reprints but the moment it does get one, its a 2 dollar reprint. So I dont think this would carry a set by itself, so there is not really a return on investment. In short it makes no financial sense to buy the rights, this is Air Neos, not blue eyes or dark magician.
@@yimmit304 this is a valid point, I forgot about that, it could be this reprint is when the artist said that it violated the contract and Konami realized they can't just reprint it anywhere. I could be wrong though
@@TheMajor2029 Konami doesn't care about the aftermarket prices of the cards.
If enough people want it they will reprint it.
Also why wouldn't they want the rights to something that is part of their game. It's like having a puzzle with 1 piece missing.
Convulsion of Nature, Pole Position I can understand because of their notorious coding / ruling implications.
However, why the heck is Bait Doll and Spellbinding Circle missing from Master Duel?
I guess they are just chilling with Air Neos in an epic shadow game or something.
I dont think its a coding issue, Ancient Sacred Wyvern has the same unique effect and its in the game. There isn't anything unique about the card that isn't in the game.
Yeah I know, I was regarding the first few cards because of their infamy when it comes to how it would work on an online simulator.
The separation of the however leading to my joke indicated that, but you know what they say about Yu-gi-oh! players reading comprehension.
I'm just messing around of course, I don't think we'll have an official answer regarding Air Neos, so he'll have to hang out with the other excluded cards for now.
it's the same, air neos is a protaginists card in that sense, this is as serious as the farewell dragon being an ace card... but that was fixed, this didn't seem to be a problem other than, no reprint... until it was ljteral, deleted, of an official art and based on another official and be avoided in games where its little or easy acquisition does not matter
Along with 3 of the dragon rulers
Hanging out with the Live☆Twin Link-4 too
Considering it's art is untouched in every game and episode, it could only mean they lack the rights to print him on a card for some reason
it was in the WC DS games
@@theentity5201
Why yes, the DS would be included when I already said "every game"
Then why isn’t it in Master Duel or Duel Links?
To be fair, Air Neos' wings are still in the picture of the card. So clearly, that monster is still present but they chose to hide its main body behind Neos for some reason. Maybe some weird rule in Japan that is preventing them from using it fully. I don't know. It is very strange. Nice to see this being talked about though.
Funny, Air Neos is the most useful of the old Contact Fusion monsters and part of an OTK. I hoped Konami would revive the NEX support and make even an upgraded form of it.
Weird enough, Instant Contact has still Air Neos' wing in the artwork. It seems like he is more hidden compared to in the opening instead of just being excluded like it seems at first glance.
Well its no really the wing in the right artwork. Looks different then it does on the card/anime scene. Still wierd that they even changed the look of the wing
@@BaxsStudios eh, tge artstyle has changed over the years which includes the colors they use to draw certain monsters (look at kuriboh and sangan in the artworkof newer cards), the colors are different but the shape is the same.
Air neos otk is actually probably the only way neos is in anyway playable
This can also be said to all old print out cards, too, like two days ago, I was watching an archetype video on the Gladiator Beasts, and I thought, "This kinda makes me want to run Gladiator Beast for a while", so I get on Amazon, and I know people that make Yu-Gi-Oh deck that they sell online, and surprise-suprise, they had one, but when I looked at the deck profile, it was lacking in the old Gladiator cards like Alexander and Spartacus and others, until I googled them, and they didn't have any new reprints besides the new support, they legit had the old Gladiator Beast cards from like 2007-9, I guess which goes up to 10 to 22 dollars!?
Ok, Konami. I know you've been making bigger and better archetypes focusing on the meta, and you do pay respects to old-school cards and iconic ones, but can't you show some love on the other side of the card pool?
Even though Ive been drawing Gladiator Beast fan art and yet never once owned the cards, this concerns me
@@chimaeraarts It should, because there are old archetypes that don't get any love or any updated reprints, like Worms, which only have one Fusion monster.
Really interesting. The way this card seems so subtly omitted makes me think it's actually a personal slight. Like, there was a team that were responsible for the creation and design of Neos and his support. They each designed their own fusions, and they all became really close friends by the end. But then, the guy who made Air Neos had a really bad falling out (prob signed on to MTG), and left the them all. Most of them don't wanna talk about it, a few are happy for him, but the the team lead and some others feel betrayed and pissed. There's actually no legal issues at all, the lead just wants to burry all the other guy's work.
At least, that's what I came up with in the first 3 minutes...
I didn’t notice until now: in the card art, there’s still wings behind Neos. Maybe a subtle reference to Air or even Honest Neos?
Jokes on you, maybe it's honest's wings
Doesn't really look like Honest Neos' wings at least to me upon closer look. Maybe a new design is coming for Air Neos?
Yeah, aren't Air Neos wings white on the back?
@@soedragons3582 white on the back, pink at the front.
Air Neos technically is on that cards art. But what it looks like they've done is tweaked it a bit so Air Neos specifically isnt visible. Those wings near Glow Neos and Flare Neos are neither of their wings, but Air Neos' wings. Also next to Glow Neos' arm, the one closest to Neos, appears to be maybe a small portion of Air Neos' armor. It's like they just moved Air Neos around from the background without just completely removing him.
I love this format, please do more of this kind of video on deep lore and mysteries it can be really cool and original
Yeah I'm pretty convinced there's some sort of legality issue (or at the very least Konami is afraid of a potential one), nothing else really makes sense for why they didn't put the card in Master Duel.
As far as changing the name/art, maybe they don't wanna change those because it's a somewhat iconic card from the show, but who knows.
The weird thing is that Air Neos was actually in Link Evolution but not in MD.
@@randomprofile5853 Yeah, but maybe it has to do with being able to roll/gacha for it using real money that would cause an issue.
Actually it’s kinda odd, there are a lot of cards missing from Master Duel… it feels like MD has about 70% of all cards in the game and is missing the last 30%. So it’s not just Air Neos. For example the newest set of Speedroid support is not in the game either.
@@Megamanlanprime The majority of cards from the last year or so aren't in the game, that's probably more to do with whatever cut-off point they had when deciding what cards to have in the initial release rather than other issues (copyright/legal issues/etc with 10+ year old cards), so I don't find those cards missing particularly odd.
Some of the "new" Speedroid stuff has already been datamined iirc so I wouldn't be surprised if they're added at some point soon-ish.
@@Megamanlanprime There’s also a lot of cards that are banned in the OCG so they just aren’t made available because not wanting to deal with forbidden cards and what not
Theory: Konami employees get payed in air neos copies
Air Neos is definitely super weird though I don’t know if anyone’s ideas on the art or name or whatever are right because if they’re willing to change the art on Mad Lobster or Injection Fairy Lily for copyright reasons then they’d be willing to change it for a major card used by a protagonist. Plus although it hasn’t had a reprint it has been in videogames for years up until master duel and they have no problems continuing to make the GX episodes it featured it available.
I really have no idea what the real problem could be though
Edit: Also it is in Instant Contact, it’s just squashed up at the back behind regular Neos
maybe they want us to believe it's honest neos... but the wings are more stylized xd where the hell did those wings come from in ... wake up... xd it's absurd
Stratos was put in prison for years for a crime he didn't commit, but Konami straight up unpersoned Air Neos. They must really hate WIND Elemental Heroes.
you can actually see air neos if you look closely on instant contact-
it's the giant wings
you can also see a bit of his arm
I've enjoyed and have been collecting HERO cards since I was a kid back in 2006 till now. It kills me so much that I'm still missing this one and only Neos Fusion HERO monster. 😭
It’s the only card I need to finish my jaden character deck and I’m not paying $170 for it 😅 I hope they put it as a secret rare in the speed duel gx box as one of the promos but I’m not holding my breath
Cool what’s your deck list for the deck, I’ve been thinking of creating one
@@neosgundam2584 it’s pretty much a direct copy of all the YGOAnimeGames jaden character decks mushed together, I will say it’s not much fun to duel with since main character luck isn’t a thing in real life and it has 2 archetypes trying to co exist lol but I definitely don’t regret building it hope this helps :)
If you look at instant contact, there is SOMETHING at the back which is where air neos is in the GX opening. It looks kinda like a wing but something that belongs to cyber end instead of air neos though.
6:41 Actually Dylan, Air Neos can be seen in Instant Contact: His wings can be seen behind both Flare Neos and Glow Neos.
Yeah but still it’s unfair he gets treated like that compared to the others
Good eye but he was still intentionally hidden as much as possible.
It's kinda funny how much konami tries to hide him
It's not the same wings as Air Neos, Looks more like the wings for Honest Neos
Bring back✊️ Elemental HERO Air Neos!!!!!!!!!
#BringbackelementalHEROAirNeos #Dojusticetothiscard #BringJusticeToAirNeos
I really do hope Air Neos will be reprinted one day and appear on other cards again. Not only because it deserves to be reprinted like the other Neos fusions, but also to bring down its price on eBay, lol. #JusticeForAirNeos
Rip leegend ( takahashi )
Shuttleroid has been OCG exclusive since 2007, I hope they bring him for Speed Duel, also Air Neos would be a good idea.
Interestingly, the italian name is "Neos Grandioso" that in english would be like Grandiose Neos.
if you look closely at instant contact you can still see air neos wings on the card, so he is on the card he just hiding
I never knew about this generation next is also a other neos support card that's a reference to the first gx opening up the English opening for gx
I really like how in Yu-Gi-Oh duel link there’s a voice line for the card
I like how instant contact scrapped air neos, but it’s wings are still there.
in that picture of the new instant contact you can see air neos's wing behind base neos
Wow, I never knew this was going on with Air Neos. The fact it isn't in the latest support artwork, Master Duel, and Legacy of the Duelist even is crazy.
It is in legacy of the Duelist
@@rueblie2627 oops, my mistake
The weird thing is that instant contact art u can see a bit of air neos wing by glow neos
Air Neos was the only Neos fusion I don’t own as a real card and that kinda sucks. It’s just too expensive to pick one up and it really deserves a reprint.
Really, I think Konami is just trolling everyone. They love messing with the HERO archetype to drive us insane. Like with Stratos on the banlist for the length of time it was. This is how they get their kicks.
if you examine the art for instant contact its extra weird cause air neo is actually in the art hes just hiding behind neos, you can still clearly see his wings
There are even people who are dumb enough to claim Air Neos is excluded from DL and MD because it's difficult to program the effect. Lmao we have Ancient Sacred Wyvern in both games, whose effect is kinda similar (only difference is ASW loses ATK instead of gaining when your LP is lower). So it's 100% definitely not a programming issue.
No. 35 Ravenous Tarantula also exists and has an effect that functions the same way, and it made it to Duel Links and Master Duel. The whole "programming difficulty" theory definitely needs to be laid to rest because it doesn't work
The copyright theory is so weird to me. If the issue was that the design is plagiarized, just create a new artwork and done.
Air Neos is on the artwork for Instant Contact, you can see a bit of a wing behind Neos
The wings of air neos made it in at least, but still leaves a lot of unanswered questions...
Can you do video about top ace monsters of protagonists or Rivals
He’s also not featured in the upcoming official merchandise for the binder that features the other neos fusions
Omg wait i just realised something: Was rainbow neos used in the anime? As like a thing of jessie and jaiden working together? That would be sick!
I would like a new Jaden E Hero Structure deck. They could finally give the Vanilla Heros like Clay Man and Sparkman retrains.
...Clayman and Sparkman? Those aren't Evil HEROs, those are vanilla as fuck Elemental HEROs, I assume you mean Lightning Golem, the Evil Hero version of Thunder Giant, both of which are made using Clayman and Sparkman
@@syrelian No just a typo I'll fix it
Or is it just an earlier frame of the moment in the opening where Air Neos isn’t seen so that the monsters are closer together?
Yugioh gx greatness
Marine Neos got reprinted in the GX Legendary Collection but one of its fusion materials Neo-Spacian Marine Dolphin didn't. Why did they not reprint Air Neos instead? Air Hummingbird got reprinted.
I now understand the opening skit on Rata’s super quantum video.
You: Mad Lobster
Me: Ah yeah the 1700 vanilla water lv3 from CRV
You: "I'm sure 90% of you don't know Mad Lobster because why would you"
Me: I might have a problem
This could be a less public version of what happened with Kadrabra in the Pokemon Trading Card Game.
Oh wow I didn't know that mad lobster plagiarism thing. I still have the old card artwork in my old bulk pile
It should also be mentioned that Air Neos also has a different name in italian too, so it's still wouldn't make sense regarding the name, Dimension Explosion with air Neos on the card is ALSO in Master Duel as well so the design isn't an issue either.
If it was a name issue, they could of simply changed the name
hmmmm we love a good conspiracy!! Doesnt it kindof look like there's another wing behind everyone on the Instant contact card? But not like Air Neos'... so what's up with that?!
Poor Air Neos
I still waiting for the 13 mission triple Neos fusion that are left. We only got chaos, nebula and storm.
Wait the instant contact art has its wings in the picture....
i think i saw some post about this recently and ohhh boy i didn't notice this about air neos! What's weird is that you would think they would change it but would kinda be hard given that the anime showed this monster in like 3 episodes and in the very cool opening teardrop by bowl! Idk but i hope in the future we can see it again reprinted and it is strange what's going on with the monster!
Yes I am wondering why air neos not duel link's or master duel yet.
6:50 I think he’s just camera shy. See? His wing is showing behind glow neos
Air Neos looks like Crimson mode Gallantmon. Pretty sure they came out around the same time as well
For some reason Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon, Tyrant of D., and ultimate fusion aren't in Master Duel either. They won't give answers as to why. I contacted support to find out and I was basically told to go duck myself.
They might need to retrain all the Neos Fusions and Neo-Spacians at this point if the card artist is an issue
I wonder why they didn’t copy of reprinted air neos for various reasons or didn’t include in instant contact artwork
With the art with Instant contact, why is their a hidden wing and another behind Neo Glos and Neos
Hahaha, I've missed your videos like this man. I'm sorry for the cat and mouse stuff you've had to deal with regarding Nihon mate but seeing you turn Konami's greedy business practices into a dedicated is a treat for the eyes.
Hmm I'm sure most people noticed, but there are wings behind the other neos guys in Instanct Contact, perhaps alluding to Air neos. Much like Pheonix Enforcer I hope we get a retrain/redesign for Air Neos down the line with the consistent support these cards keep getting
I first figured out that air neos didn't get a reprint since legendary collection 2. I was looking at the list of cards I wanted to collect especially all the fusion monsters because I love extra deck monsters and I noticed and found it odd that air neos wasn't on the list.
Air Neos saved me so much back in the Tag Force games when I played it years ago when I was a kid and I'm surprised he hasn't been reprinted for so long
I had no idea about this card or the lobster but they don't rename or not reprint cards unless there is a huge reason.
Yeh, it's crazy cuz my pops bought me it when he was outta town years ago.
(I was collecting ALL of the HERO fusion cards at the time, waaaaay back. Lol)
I have a perfect condition Ulti Rare Air Neos! 😁
Damn never knew these things about this card
While I don't know why he's never been reprinted, he is on the new card. The art is like the first nano second of the sequence when they come out from behind neos
"Air Neos is not good" well, is the second best pure "Neo Spacian" 2 materials fusion based on E Hero Neos
Air neo is kind of in contact artwork just only his wings can be seen, it's likely they refferenced an earlier frame in the opening to reference it and air neos just doesn't show enough of himself since he's like the guy standing at the back of the picture, becuase Grand neos wanted to show off his drill and flare neos would be MOST likely for copyright since it looks similiar to one of the zoanoids from Guyver called zectol or more specifically neo-zx-tole but that could be just because they are both based off a beetle.
One theory I’ve heard is that there’s a dispute with an Italian airline company called “Neos Air” and they had a problem w konami using the name of air neos, and Konami agreed w them to not use it ever again.
Edit: it was mentioned here so I jumped the gun
Konami air Neos
That theory seems really weak, because even if it were true that Neos Air would have an issue, Konami has to just rename Air Neos to be idk "Hummingbird Neos" and it would all be solved. They've done errata a lot, and even changing names, like Frog the Jam to Slime Toad, so doing that to prevent such an issue is a no-brainer imo.
They could change the name, a card named Caterpillar Tank from YGO R manga was printed but it got it's name changed to Powered Crawler. They could do the same with Air Neos then.
@@NytoDork I don't know if they make erratas for main characters anime monsters, I mean Summoned Skull errata was to add "is treated as an Archfiend" like if it has an effect despite being a normal monster instead of changing the name
Pretty sure he was only called Air Neos in US and Japan anyway so the Italian Airline thing doesn't hold much water to me. That and as everyone has said if it's the name just change it, why go out of the way to pull the artwork from the lineup if it was just the name that's the issue?
I was looking at The two Images of The opening and Instant contact and I realized... Air Neos is there, You can see the wing behind Glow Neos and the little tip of the head behind Neos
Sorry if anyone else has already mentioned this...
I remember back in 2006/7 right around the time tag force and GX came out a magazine or kids TV show or something like that, ran a "Design a card " competition and I distinctly remember someone designing a card similar to this (cant remember if they won or were a runner up etc) But Konami or Upper Deck at the time, took their design and they didn't get paid, or credited,
I have since done a bit of digging online just to check i wasn't remembering it wrong as it was long time a go. and found several historical evidence and instances for this kind of thing, but the exact details are some what lacking.
i doubt its because the airline neos. theres cards from anime such as Fairy Tail and Dragon maid and they seem to not mind reprinting those
Actually, the new card is even weirder. Air Neos is there but hidden. It looks like it is from a few frames before the still or something so that he is hidden for minimal editing requirements.
Ground Neos is based of some Shin Getter Robo design that's what YGO Wiki trivia says, so maybe Air Neos is based on something from that.
