Can we ascertain how much of the time we Brits spend being Disgruntled?

I mean, there must be some small percentage when we in the UK are happy.

Um, for me I'm 20% un-disgruntled :P

I've always wondered how Hasbro decides which Transformers will be sold in Europe. Do they pick the most popular toys in the US aside from the main characters or what?

Well thanks to the tomfoolery on the forums and the passwords not working on HMW, my percentage is conciderably smaller than normal right now...

That and Argos exceling and being crap.

Edit: And we are getting beaten by the bloody Michiganers....

I believe they use a combination of whatever figures they are sent and the names that the marketing monkeys pick out of a barrel.

What am I talking about, Hasbro UK aren't that organised!

In all seriousness I suspect it's actully the oposite, we often get tfs and sets that havent sold as well (VP vs SS for instence).

I suspect with the movie coming up, even if the toys aint that great, at least we wont be getting as shafted as in the past.
