Marvel's Simon Furman Era (1989-1994)

In the table below, the first series and the second series are usually known as the U.S. series and the U.K. series, respectively.
If one owns the U.S. issues or the six trade paperbacks collecting them, the only substantive original material in this era that one would lack (outside of U.K. covers) appeared in The Transformers (second series) #240-289 -- a total of some fifty issues.
