I know these aren't exactly the toughest questions in the world and they're very simple to find with a simple internet search, but it seems sort of lame to just post them up. I realize in the end the contest is more about random selection to choose a winner, but still.

Wanted to point out that they ask you put "Dragon Ball Z contest" in the subject line. Wouldn't want someone to miss out just because they had the wrong subject on their email.

Freeza transforms.

C is the right answer because Cell & Boo also transform.

Freeza states that his final form is his true power, IIRC.

Yeah "true power" can make that question confusing... both Vegeta and Freeza attain their true natural power with transformation, I went with Freeza on the contest.

Only Freeza transformed into his "True Power" state by himself. Vegeta used the moon, Cell absorbed the androids, and Buu ate everyone.

Well, in the Boo story line, he transformed back into his Kid Boo state (every other form was a dilution of it), which is his true form. Wouldn't he count?
