Honestly, I wasn't really fond of Neos and the Neos-Spacians and I still like the other ace monsters of other protagonists more. I didn't like how they stole a lot of spotlight from Judai's Elemental HEROes and Neos appeared too often in my opinion (often even worse than Flame Wingman), but I do like Neos having those different forms, something that probably inspired the trend of protagonists evolving their aces in the "not-just-once-for-only-that-duel" manner and inspired them to focus too heavily on their aces. Either Neos or Blue-Eyes.
Anyway, it is sad to see that Neos and his pals haven't got direct support after all these years, except Neos Knight, who is not a good support either. Especially since the ARC-V era gave many other older archetypes support over the years.
Dark Magician... nuff said.
Stardust: International release of Shooting Quasar, and all the Stardust support cards.
Utopia's Shining evolutions.
And here are the rival archetypes: Ojama, (VWXYZ), Cyber Dragon, Destiny HEROes.
And other GX archetypes got more love than them after GX ended: Cyber Angels, Ancient Gears, Volcanic, Crystal Beasts, Amazoness and even Gladiator Beasts.
And it's not like that Judai never got support. No. The manga Elemental HEROes overshadowed his anime HEROes. His Masked HEROes even more. But since the manga E-HEROes are part of the E-HERO archetype, their archetype still got much more love than Neos. It's just Neos and his pals who don't get any love (and Yubel). Hell, even Kuriboh got more love than him. Even though Flame Wingman is Judai's favorite monster, it's Neos who is his signature card. Neos is the HERO of his deck, so it looks unfair that Neos hasn't some love after the end of the GX era.
The archtype really needs better cards. With the exception of Grand Mole, the Neo-Spacians aren't that good and are not really worth playing. Elemental HERO Neos being a Normal Monster is already bad (even though there is plenty of Normal Monster support), back then Neos as a card alone was worse than Dark Magician in the Duel Monsters era. Retrained versions of Neos, the Neo-Spacians and possibly Fusions would be neater. Maybe they could get rid of the whole "stay for one turn" concept, since it's the thing that hurts the archetype the most. If they would get the Gladiator Beasts' tagging, it wouldn't be that bad, but they shouldn't just copy that and aim for a different kind of play. Blue-Eyes and Dark Magician changed a lot over the years and play now differently than before.
