Is it just my imagination, or has there yet to be a single Ultra Magnus figure, RPM, or other toy released in any of the Bayverse lines (2007, ROTF, HFTD)?

Not yet at least.

I suspect that with Prime being made so significant a character now, that there will be far fewer "White Primes" in the North American market now.

We shall see though. If there is an Ultra Magnus, I hope it's a new mold

Just like there is no Nemesis Prime, they do not want the Prime mold being repainted into anything else. There has only been one other use of the Bumblebee mold as Cliffjumper in 07.

Stixx

I wonder if that means we might be seeing UM in movie #3...

I'm kinda hoping that new fire truck spotted with the others is a Bayverse Ultra Magnus. He'd be big enough.

For me, I'm glad there's no Bayverse Prime redeco into UMagnus. I don't mind if it's G1 because that's the root of UMagnus toy. But all other lines should not. So far we got 4 lines (Universe BIB Magnus, Ehobby Laser Magnus, WWI Magnus, Classic Magnus) of Magnus redeco from Prime.

As for TF3, I thought it would've been nice to have UMagnus in there just to show some rivals against Shockwave on Cybertron. Even if it's just a background story or something. I guess, he's not in TF3. Otherwise, we would've heard something.

Ultra magnus deserves a hell of a lot more than being a repainted Prime nearly everytime. Unless they can give him the respect he deserves and give him his own mold then I am content that there is no Ultra Magnus.

I'm a little suprised by this myself, but I hope that if they do make a Bayvers Magnus, they go the route of RiD and TFA, make him the biggest badass ever molded and NOT somebody else painted white.
