How quickly can Ginyu fire off his body swap? I remember it being pretty quick.

He can fly a little FTL without apparent strain, for what that's worth. But I don't recall him explicitly going far beyond that; and he does prefer to open stargates when time or distance is an obstacle.
Nova tanked the "Herald My Rage" blast while bubble-shielding two others. So really, everyone survives, even Tony who shouldn't even be there.

There's a sizable energy aura around him in its aftermath that would speak to having called it up for defense, considering he doesn't normally roll around with that kind of thing. And all the same they had enough time to react that the people with him with no particular superhuman reaction time could see the blast coming in.
I don't want to speculate why the aura is there. If I were to, I would imagine it was because he'd had to fly over to Annihilus. The aura most consistently appears in flight. It's not, at least obviously, in a "shield" form.
More importantly, from all of his appearances, it doesn't seem to take him any special amount of time to max his shields. He just thinks it and it's done, usually without charge time or art cue.
I think you can chalk that up to comic-book-dialogue-hypertime. Regardless, do we know how long it takes Frieza to blow up a planet? What bar does he have to clear here?And all the same they had enough time to react that the people with him with no particular superhuman reaction time could see the blast coming in.
Even assuming somewhat less than commensurate reflexes to his maximum unassisted flight speed, I think we have to assume Rider can at least think "max shields," or Worldmind can do it for him, if indeed he even needs to. And when speed is equalized, it's a non-issue.

Frieza: I have an army.
Iron Man: We have a Hulk.
I mean Hulk doesn't really have much in the way of options here. You don't bring knifes to an Energy Attack & Esoterics Fight. Also, with the mention of Frieza planet busting, how has nobody brought up Abridged ?
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran
