As far as we know there are no plans to reissue Grapple again, but they might be announcing more at the San Diego Comic-Con.

ok, do you know what they are planning on re-releasing? has there been any others confirmed?

If you're looking for G1 one reissues, there is the Takara Encore series. Right now they have several out:

Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, Ironhide, Ratchet, Skylinks, and Jazz; with others on the horizon.

For 25th Anniversary there are no other G1 figures confirmed, but as Cyberjet #7 said, there is an ongoing series of reissue figures from Japan. So far we only know of Omega Supreme, Metroplex, Thundercracker and Skywarp in the near future, in addition to the ones he listed.

If your biggest worry is whether G1 Grapple will be re-released or not, I don't know what to tell you.

I think that with the 25th anniversary they're mainly going to be doing new molds of stuff - the prime reissue was just a no-brainer.

You can always try Ebay. Tru Grapple reissues are nice and cheap there.

I think they should of sticked to g1 reissues more. Most of those new tf molds look dissappointing so far. With the exception of both Prowl and BlueStreak. Even the G.I. Joe 25th anniversary looks alot more promising until now.
