Do you think Tambourine will be on the list?
He ain't showing up. If he did, he'd be below Nappa, who's already appeared.

Tambourine might get a mention in King Piccolo's slot.

Actually, I don't think there's been any Dragonball villains on the list yet, have there?

I think he might get a higher spot due to impact, because after all this was Kuririn's first death.

Tambourine was the precursor to where Dragonball ended and where Dragonball Z begins (I mean that figuratively, and in tone, not literally) even more so than Raditz. Raditz brought the retcons and the sci fi elements. Tambourine brought the high action, and the death of main characters

If we're talking about impact, than I think Nappa has more significance than Tambourine. Yes, it was the first time Kuririn dies but at the very least, the Dragon Balls were always around to wish him back. Nappa put the entire setting of the story in the most hopeless and bleak it ever was at that point by killing Piccolo and making any hope of wishing back the dead Z-Fighters look practically impossible. Because of that, it was because of Nappa that the trip to Namek was necessary in the first place.

If anything, they'd probably just group Piccolo's demons together like they did Freeza's goons.

I can see why. Aside from Tamborine killing Kuririn, they really don't stand out too much do they?

The most memorable things about the other three are how they died

I think Drum had the best death, getting his eyeballs kicked out of his sockets.

Imho it's Cymbal'sTambourine's First time in the series that an energy attack dissolved an opponent. Though I am partial to Yajirobe being a fucking badass and taking out TambourineCymbal. Gah Toriyama why didn't he do more with Yajirobe?

Who says the town that Dr. Slump takes place in is the only Penguin Village in the world?

I'm guessing the Red Ribbon Army will be in the top 10.

I just hope that Taopaipai doesn't get saddled with them and has his own spot. Maybe he can share with Tsuru Sennin.

The Penguin Village that got absorbed was actually a village that penguin's lived in. :P

No he didn't, that's a sloppy retcon. As presented in his own arc, he was the most powerful being in the universe, the undisputed most powerful fighter of the most powerful warrior race, who only wanted for one thing: immortality, so he could enjoy an eternity of violence.
Tell me, mate: how exactly expanding the character backstory is a "sloppy retcon"? I mean sure we didn't know much about Freeza until middle-to-end Namek Arc and TV Special 1, is that so bad? And okay Freeza shares some similarities with Vegeta, as many villains that came in the series afterwards, is that bad either? No, cause they are different characters, there's no redemption in Freeza's character as we later see with Vegeta.
