TBH besides collectors there isn't as much interest in G1. They could do a small release but it may not be worth the money to produce these items. Especially considering this is the first year in a while they still have the Fair / Comic-Con exclusive in stock in a long while.
Hasbro seems to think that EQG is what they gave us to celebrate the anniversary. SpoilerAccording to this NY Times article from early last year anywayhttp://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/02/business/hasbro-expands-transformers-brand-into-new-media.html
My dream anniversary set would be Masquerade, Whizzer, Fizzy, and Galaxy in the G4 style.
I would also release the two specials uncut on DVD as well as the My Little Pony half of My Little Pony 'n Friends as originally aired on DVD.

I know, I am being a hopeless optimist. But I will continue to hold out hope until we see what shows up at the toy fair this year.
I think a cute idea for the 30th anniversary would have been to do a repro set of the g1 ponies that served as Lauren Faust's inspiration for the mane 6. So Firely, Surprise, Sparkler or Glory, Twilight, Applejack, and Posey, maybe Majesty as well for Celestia, or even making them in g4 style.Wishful thinking though, probably.
