Was this really a dub mistake? I always thought it was also mentioned in the original version or manga, then corrected with the Bardock special.
No, that's never said in the original.

Well, the #19 and #20 thing is very true, and I haven't seen much confusion over the matter. We got an explanation of what happened straight from Toriyama himself.

Wasn't it because his editors didn't like the idea of having an old guy and a fat blob being the main enemies? So they made him change them, and thus, 17 and 18 were born.

Yeah, that's it. Then they didn't like #17 and #18 either, so Cell came along. And then they thought he was ugly, so he had to quickly transform.

Though to nit-pick, it was Toriyama's old editor Torishima who called him to express his disapproval of 19 and 20, and then 17 and 18. Then it was his current editor who complained about Cell's 1st and 2nd form designs, but liked Cell's perfect form. Toriyama only had one editor at a time, and a total of three over the course of the series.

I still think Radditz moving at the speed of light dub error would be nice to add since I seen people that say Radditz can move at the speed of light when this was not in the subs or the original Manga.

I thought it was just a figure of speech...

It was mention when Piccolo used the Special beam canon against Radditz, and Piccolo was like "no way he is faster then the speed of light". In the Manga, and the subs it mention that he was just really fast.

For the record, the exact line of dialogue is:

"He's faster than the... the speed of light...!"

I always took it as a figure of speech, too, but then I've also seen plenty of people use it as literal evidence in their asinine crusades to prove power levels in the series...

Sort of adding into that is that in the dub Goku's Instant Movement is often said to be as fast as the speed of light (as opposed to, you know, instant), creating sort of a plot hole with that Piccolo line, but only if you take it literally.

Yeah I find that to be a figure of speech and I still think it would be a nice idea to add since I seen too many people using it as literal evidence in debates.

Here are a few I'd like to see added:

-Toriyama originally planned to have Piccolo fall under Babidi’s spell
-Toriyama said he didn’t include female Super Saiyans because he didn’t know how to draw them (really, you could have a whole section on bogus Toriyama quotes)
-Boo destroyed 3/4s of the universe (the whole Planet Namek.com cosmology)
-Only pure-blooded Saiyans can become Super Saiyan 4 (a dub mistake)

How is that a mistake? JPN Bulma says Baby's cells were interfering so Vegeta couldn't go SS4.

Haven't heard that it ages. Was it fake then? I assumed it had to do with Pan in GT.

How do you get from "having a parasite inside your body prevents you from going SSJ4" to "only a pure-blooded Saiyan can go SSJ4"?

I've never seen any source for it, at any rate.

Because Baby-Vegeta was a hybrid.

He was Vegeta with Baby inside his body, controlling him. How is that at all the same sort of thing as a Saiyan half-breed like Gohan or Trunks?

I thought Vegeta explained his inablity to go SSj4 by saying his "blood was tainted".

From episode 55 (as translated by Simmons):

Vegeta: "But, when I was taken over by Baby, and recieved a large dose of Bruits waves on Planet Tsufuru turning me into a Great Ape, I did not become Super Saiyan 4."
Bulma: "At that time, baby's own cells were interfering, which kept you from becoming Super Saiyan 4."
Vegeta: "B- but still, I havn't lost my rationality, even after becoming a Great Ape, since long ago. So then, why wouldn't I have become Super Saiyan 4 before now?"
Bulma: "Perhaps, as Son-kun would put it, it's because you didn't have enough training."
