Don't hold your breath waiting for un-Masterworked Omnibii...the work and cost of restoration is such that it is usually only economically feasible for Marvel to produce an Omnibus if the material has already been prepared for another purpose.

There ARE rare exceptions, like the Howard The Duck, Amazing Fantasy, Eternals and Devil Dinosaur (the last two Marvel recycled as TPBs) so it is not impossible...just those tend to be exceptions rather than the rule. Basically, it has better chance of an Omnibus if a TPB, Marvel Premiere Edition or Masterwork of the material has already been printed!

You can add both of the Tomb of Dracula editions to that list.  Also, maybe less restoration is needed since the Simonson Thor run is much more recent then the typical silver age fare we are used to getting.  Just a thought.

"Beware the beast Man, for he is the Devil’s pawn. Alone among God’s primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother’s land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.” – Sacred Scroll 29:6
