Can't find any info about what the status on the licensing is between Marvel and Hasbro so maybe that's why no lawsuit has erupted, But as DC has an ongoing licensed with Mattel, I'd believe that they wouldn't overlap their franchises.

Since the Marvel run went from 84-91 and the UK run was 84-92, there shouldn't be a current licensing agreement between Hasbro and Marvel as Marvel currently has no need to get rights to the franchise.
And from those minor spoilers, it sounds like it would be a waste of Hasbro's lawyers attempting to sue as they can't prevent any one else from using the word transform or fighting robots,
