The Transformers Live Action Movie Blog has posted images of a call sheet for filming in Chicago on July 27-28th, 2010 "with" Megatron and Ultra Magnus. Early this year a redacted call sheet was posted online with Magnus listed as a character. While not the same sheet this does further confirm that, for at least a while, the character of Sentinel Prime was going to be called Ultra Magnus. Test screening apparently drove the change from Ultra Magnus to Sentinel Prime. The head of what would have been Ultra Magnus was re-used as what the Apollo 11 astronauts step on and uncover as they explore the ship.

Would Ultra Magnus have been a fitting character? Or did Hasbro have Paramount use a different name as to not tarnish the character in a similar way that Sentinel Prime was used instead of Rodimus in Animated?
