For July 2013:
-New printing of The Fantastic Four Omnibus Volume 1, the first couple of years of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee's Fantastic Four. No known changes.
-Fantastic Four By Jonathan Hickman Omnibus Volume 1 - This is a big over-sized collection of the first two years on Hickman's run on the series. It combines five trade paperbacks, which is a pretty good deal, and also adds the Dark Reign: Fantastic Four mini-series and some material from Dark Reign: The Cabal #1, which I don't think was previously included in the five trades.
-Fantastic Four Vol. 2: Road Trip - The newest material from the current Fantastic Four series by Matt Fraction and Mark Bagley.
-Fantastic Four: Crusaders & Titans - This fills out the full story that was previously collected in a Visionaries collection of a George PĂ©rez run. So about seven of these issues have never been reprinted in color before.
-Essential Fantastic Four Vol. 9 - This black and white reprint project just keeps on truckin'. A whopping one issue has never been reprinted before but it's a cheap way to get a large chunk of issues.

Age of Ultron - A big honkin' hard cover collecting the big event, including an issue of Fantastic Four.

For September 2013:
-A new printing of Fantastic Four Omnibus Vol. 2 that might omit Not Brand Ecch #1, which would be a shame.
-Fantastic Four By John Byrne Omnibus Vol. 2 - For the most part this is faithful to the Visionaries series of soft cover collections but in a larger format. There is some minor material unique to each but I don't think it will significantly alter the reading experience.

For December 2013:
-Fantastic Four/Inhumans: Atlantis Rising - Never before reprinted, this is a relatively minor event that got kind of lost in the shuffle in 1995. I don't think I ever would've expected this to get its own book.
-Fantastic Four Epic Collection: All in the Family - Another batch never before reprinted, these are the issues that immediately followed John Byrne's popular run in the '80s.

For April 2014:

For May 2014:
Nova Classic Vol. 3 A soft cover version of a good chunk of the 1979 stories that appear in the hardcover Fantastic Four: In Search of Galactus, plus a half dozen issues of the original Nova series that lead up to them, previously only collected/reprinted in black and white.

Added for June 2014:
-Marvel Masterworks: Fantastic Four Vol. 16 - The newest installment of Marvel's complete color reprinting of the Fantastic Four series in order. This brings things up to late 1976 and the 175th issue of FF. Everything has been reprinted before but it does consolidate two previous books into one place. The only weird part is it's supposed to include Marvel Treasury Edition #11, which from what I understand is itself entirely made up of reprints of early Fantastic Four issues. Maybe it's just the cover that's reprinted? I'm not really sure.
-Fantastic Four Epic Collection: Into the Timestream - Continuing Marvel's new scattershot reprint project Epic Collections, this compiles stories from 1990 mostly overseen by the popular Walt Simonson. Again, all of this has been collected before but it's most likely out of print and now brings stories from two different collections into one place.

For August 2014:
-Fantastic Four Omnibus By Jonathan Hickman Volume 2 - This collects three soft covers, representing the second half of writer Jonathan Hickman's time on the series, including the renamed FF and the return/relaunch of Fantastic Four proper.
-Fantastic Four Epic Collection: The World's Greatest Comic Magazine - Reprinting the first 18 issues of the original Fantastic Four series from 1961 in Marvel's new Epic Collection series of soft covers. These issues have been thoroughly reprinted elsewhere but is probably the best deal for all those issues in color. It's basically two issues and an annual shy of being one of those big phonebook-like black and white Essentials.
-Fantastic Four Volume 1: The Fall of the Fantastic Four - This is the newest material getting reprinted, the relaunched (again) Fantastic Four series.
