Can anyone identify these Saiyans?
These were images taken from episode 72 of Dragonball Z when Freeza and Kakarrot began their battle. Freeza and Kakarrot are standing on a spire that they just created from the battle and Freeza reminisces how he had fought the best the Saiyans had to offer in the past (most likely those that formed the faction that opposed the partnership with Freeza’s organization). The other faces everyone will clearly recognize (Bardock and two members from his crew, King Vegeta and Prince Vegeta), but the above two faces I do not.
In addition, I would like to know if there are any other Saiyans that are shown in the series or in other media that are not identified in any manner.
The Saiyans are very much like the Klingons and Jem'Hadar.

There are those Saiyans from Ten, Yamcha, Chatozu, and Krillins training for Nappa and Vegeta. There are also a lot of them in the Bardock special. As for those 2, I dont think they are ever named. You best bet would be in the daizenshuu's but I do not have one to reference.

From what I gather those two that Ten, Yamcha, Krillin and Chauzu fought, are Brokko (name from broccoli) and Pumpkin (think from the Daizenshuus).
Edit: wasn't that Planet Vegeta 100 years ago that they were sent to?

Really? This is what the Saiyans from the Room of Spirit and Time looked like.
I don't recognize the other two.

Normally the Saiyans that fought Kuririn, Tenshinhan, Chiaotzu, and Yamcha are called Illusionary Saiyans, but I believe that an old video game gave them the names that SaiyaMel mentioned.

Because they are filler characters and hence should never be thought twice of.

Yes, we know that they are evil filler characters

but it is fun to find out bits of background information in order to flesh out the entire story and it is good for fanfiction and fan manga writers.

IIRC, the bandana wearing Saiyan was one of the ones who fought alongside King Vegeta when Freeza killed off the entire Saiyan Elite.

Wow he was? Do you know what episode? If my memory serves that was around the time Freeza killed Vegeta but I am not sure.

It was in the "Battle power 1 million" episode when Freeza transformed. Before he transformed, he talked about the destroying of the Saiyans planet. It then shows a flashback of said events.

NO clue. I don't own the DVDs, he just looks really familiar.

Just what we need a hydrochronic smoking Saiyan, then again if they were doing so earlier in Dragonball history the genocide rate would be really low because they would be so damn high that they would not even think about killing. I wonder what a Saiyan day of 420 would be like.

I always thought the second one was Nappa without the mustache and eyebrows (animation goof) or his dad.

I find he looks more like a bald Toteppo.

I would really be interested in reading a good fanfiction or manga detailing what those days would have been like. To see Saiyan Cheech and Nappa’s pops go up against Freeza. It would have been really short but maybe 1st form Freeza played around with them like he did in his battle with Kakarrot (minus the 1st form).

The best the Saiyans had to offer at that time minus the few I could not capture in the shots and Bardock and his crew.

Wow. That clip makes it look like King Vegeta's PL is 5,000 or less...
