Well, as usual that comes down to preference, but I can offer some comments since I have both. I like having all the original Eastman/Laird written/drawn issues in one trade. Plus, it includes the Fugitoid one shot which is a nice bonus, but isn't necessary to understand the story.

As for IDW, the quality of the scans are the same, but they are on much nicer larger sized paper and in a hardcover. They split the Mirage trade into two volumes, but the main appeal to me is that I can finally get "City At War" collected, and those volumes will sit nicely on the shelf with the first 3 hardcover IDW volumes, making it a clean 1-5 volume set of all the Eastman/Laird turtle stories. Plus, these have annotations made specifically for these collections.
