Now I really liked this, and would love to see the fanservice in the show. But allow me to suck out all the fun real quick.

The Saiyans were a warrior race that slaughtered whole planets within days of arriving there. No way in HFIL would they have the same bodies in the Other World as they did in life.
I also highly doubt their mother about ever cry in front of them or that she would be proud of Goku for becoming a "kind person", or that Radditz would give a shit about his mom, seeing as he was so willing to straight up kill is brother the first time he met him.

It's true, Raditz could have killed all of them just like that, but he didn't.

The rest of these are so far off cannon though

@The Mike That's an OVA, not Toriyama-canon though.

Man, I fucking hate Bardock's retconned backstory.

it pisses me off that Raditz is completely forgotten. I know hes in the games etc only because hes a kick-starter to the sayian saga but he has potential. Yes hes a weakling but so what. Most of the power rating is all about Vegeata & Goku anyway but Raditz is key to Goku's family theres a small bit of Raditz in Gohan, Pan, Gotenks, brother in-law to Chi-Chi. He doesnt have to grow in power or not even reach super-sayian but bring the guy back already lol

Actually, Bardock and Gine seem to be the exceptions to the brutality common in Saiyans. From the wiki:

"It is also shown Bardock deeply cares about his son and decides to send him to another planet to save him from the destruction of Planet Vegeta, an action he says that is due to Gine's softness rubbing off on him. Bardock also cares for the members of his team, a fact evidenced by Gine, who had a gentle personality and wasn’t cut out as a warrior, being repeatedly saved from danger by Bardock."

Showing both Bardock's softer side as well as Gine's personality in general. Furthermore:

"Unlike a typical Saiyan, Bardock deeply cares for the members of his team and is willing to avenge the death of his crew members after finding them killed on Planet Meat, particularly Tora during their last conversation. "

In the Bardock special:

"Bardock starts to accept Berry's persistence and becomes softer with the child. When Plantians thanked Bardock for Chilled's defeat, Bardock replies with a smile."

This part of Bardock also seems to be canon, as corroborated by Toriyama himself:

"The author Akira Toriyama adds that he is warlike, but compared to other Saiyans, who are cold-hearted and of simple thoughts, he also happens to possess calm judgment and a measure of humanity. Due to his actions of saving his companions, which is rare for a Saiyan, he is greatly adored among a portion of the low-class warriors."

Meanwhile, on Gine, Bardock's wife, a societal concept relatively foreign to Saiyans:

"Gine had a gentle and caring personality similar to her youngest son and both her grandsons, and because of that, she was not cut out for fighting. Even more, she developed a genuine union of companionship with Bardock; a rare case for Saiyans, who normally do not develop male-female relationships except for breeding purposes."

Your point on Raditz still stands, but his Wikia corroborates the gentle nature of the rest of his family:

"Unlike his brother, Goku, his mother Gine and his father, Bardock, Raditz is harsh, brutal, and often arrogant like most Saiyan warriors."

Given all that, I'd just like to think Raditz is a massive tsundere and just wants his parents to notice him.
