Nope, the Saiyans have never crossed universes. (Outside of like... Heroes poo poo which doesn't count.) Cabba makes it really sound like King Sadala is just Alt-Universe Vegeta tho'.

Vegeta says multiple times he wants to meet him, which I feel like will either lead to a fight to the death or Bulma gaining a second bonus husband.

The U7 Saiyans going to U8 was probably always meant to be a big arc in Super, but with Toriyama gone who knows what'll happen now

U6. U8 is one of the four that is good enough to not get deleted.

GAMERDOME put down LOSER
If the anime had done something like what the manga did and had the three of them fight Frieza or somebody else strong for a bit and actually look like a team he'd probably be a little more popular. Hard to have a less flattering role than just being 'Vegeta's little buddy', anyway.

I was right to play it in dub. Wish I didn't find out this way, though, god drat.

Find the VA for the Cybemen, pay them to ambush him on the street somewhere and punch him out in public, then pose him like he's curled up in a crater/the recovery position and leave?

Crowd fund it?

The Saibamen have had at least 4 different VAs apparently (and 3 in the Funi dub):

As far as I’m aware, yes. Not sure why they bothered dubbing them over either (in both English dubs no less)

'Noises' are still voicework which is connected to contracts and licensing and so-on. Frank Welker for example pretty infamously made a career out of making animal noises, like the dude was responsible for making the dog noises for Cujo in the film of the same name.

If you're using those noises unchanged then you have to deal with how you pay for, attribute and license the sounds. On the other hand you can pay a dub actor to make gurgling sounds and avoid all that.

Fair point (and I think a lot of the Saibaman “actors” on both sides were people already involved in the show to begin with)
