Trivia

• Future Vegeta is much weaker than the present timeline Vegeta as he had never ascended past the unmastered Super Saiyan form.
• It is debatable how Future Vegeta died as in the TV Special he is shown being killed by a hard kick to the stomach by 17, but in the episode "Ghosts from Tomorrow" it is shown during a flashback that he dies after being struck by an energy wave while stuck in the ground. However, in both instances, he retains his Super Saiyan power and abilities.
• Future Vegeta was 35 years old when he died.
• In hindsight, Future Vegeta's death at the hands of the Androids even as a Super Saiyan could be interpreted as a very strong foreshadowing of an important plot developments: that Future Gohan and Future Trunks (both who only attained the first Super Saiyan transformation) would fail miserably in their respective fights against the Future Androids.
