Relive the original TRANSFORMERS stories that started it all! Presenting over 300 pages of classic TRANSFORMERS comic book stories in one affordable volume. Pulling from the earliest of the '80s Marvel material, this first volume offers some of the most beloved stories from the past, including the seminal "The Last Stand," "The Worse of Two Evils," "I, Robot Master," and many others. The TRANSFORMERS have undergone many changes over their 20-plus year reign over pop culture, but this retro, black and white collection showcases the beginnings of their dynasty.

IDW have already reprinted #75 in the Furman hardcover, so either it isn't a blanket prohibition or they're hoping Marvel didn't notice -- different material may be under different agreements (or Hasbro may have weighed in, since the #68-80 Unicron arc is a bit more important to their IP than Circuit Breaker on her lonesome or a promotional appearance of Spider-Man.)

Apparently it is, but the decision would've come after the solicits were submitted and the issues with the ads for it went to the printers. AFAIK, V1 should be roughly #1-16 (with notes/panels elaborating on the material that can't be reprinted) and V2 with a similar amount of content. I don't know what the editing process will have been, but if you find the notes in the first book a bit chatty rest assured that the ones submitted for the second are more straightforward summary.
Neither the IDW nor Titan reprints are really a substitute for original issues, as both have gaps. These books'll just be an inexpensive way of reading a decent-sized block of the old stuff for anyone who's curious. 
Hasbro don't make 'em like they used to. Thanks to aricosaur!
