Transformers also led in 10 of its markets in its first week of global release, including Australia with $6.7 million, Italy with $3.6 million, Taiwan with $3 million and the Philippines with $2.1 million.
 
Unfortunately, Michael Bay thought it was good enough not to include one of the greatest voice actors of all time; Frank Welker, the original voice of Megatron
 
From what I read he wasn't included because he no longer sounds as he did back in the 1980s whereas the guy who did Prime does.
 
Best bet is Belgium, The Netherlands, or Austria if you can't wait

Austria 4 July 2007
Belgium 4 July 2007 (Wilkinson American Movie Day) (premiere)
Netherlands 4 July 2007
 
That's Bay's explanation.. What Bay will not admit is that even if his excuse is accurate, a sound engineer can edit the voice to match Welker's Megatron voice from the 80's.. What's more likely is Bay or the Studio wanted a well known actor's name to attach to the film for one of the big roles.. The general public has never heard of Frank Welker even though he's voiced many characters in some of the most successful animated films. Bay/Paramount had to cave in to fans already for Cullen, so Welker was SOL.
