Love the Diamond Gems. Keep them coming!!!
Excited to hear about the 70’s gems and baseball Enemies sets.
Tried to go to the newsletter site, but couldn’t get in. Why?
Unable to open up the summer newsletters. How come ?

I like the idea of more Diamond Gems sets. I also like the idea of two sets for the 1970s. Hopefully after that it’ll be the 1960s, then the 1950s, then the 1940s, etc.
I’m concerned, however, about the Enemies Sets. I dislike the player cards being based solely on games versus a single opponent. I can’t guarantee that I’d buy a set like that. I don’t know that a player’s career starts against a single opponent are representative of his performance overall.
I’d also prefer a couple of more teams. Diamond Gems are eight team sets; Enemies could be too. I suggest Cleveland and Detroit, which would make four AL teams and four NL teams.
But the player choices? Jorge Posada instead of Yogi Berra? C’mon.
THE “ENEMIES” SET IS UNIQUE!
THE RESEARCH/NUMBER CRUNCHING OF STATS & PLAYER CHOICES FOR THIS SET MUST HAVE BEEN QUITE A TASK!
ANY CHANCE OF EXTENDING THE ROSTER SIZES TO 40 RATHER THAN 27?
ANY CHANCE OF MAKING IT 8 TEAMS , RATHER THAN 6?
THE 1ST ’70S DIAMOND GEMS SET IS SPECIAL!!!
CAN’T WAIT FOR THE 2ND OCTAD OF 70S DIAMOND GEMS!
I KNOW YOU’VE HEARD IT MANY TIMES BEFORE –
RELEASE PAST SEASON COMPLETE SETS FOR FOOTBALL (RATHER THAN 6 TEAM SETS) , BASKETBALL & HOCKEY LIKE YOU DO FOR BASEBALL!!!!!
RANDOMIZE THE BASEBALL HITTER AND PITCHER CARDS MORE –
PLACE HOMERUNS ON ROLLS OF 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 , 10, 11 OR 12 RATHER THAN ON 5 OR 9 ALL OF THE TIME ON THE PITCHER CARDS AND “SHAKE UP” THE HITTER CARDS BY SCATTERING HOMERUNS AROUND RATHER THAN HAVING THEM ON ROLLS OF 4, 5 OR 6 IN A COLUMN , PUT THE 4 ROLL IN 1 COLUMN , THE 5 ROLL IN ANOTHER COLUMN AND THE 6 ROLL IN ANOTHER COLUMN!!
Is there a way to “subscribe” to these newsletters? I checked my account – and under subscriptions there’s nothing. But, I also can’t see a place *to* subscribe to them.
At one point, I used to get them in the mail; then via email … now, not at all.
Put your e-mail in the “Subscribe” box on the homepage. You will also get any sale notifications. I don’t think a paper newsletter has been issued since about 2010. (I still have the letter from Hal stating that they were “Going Green” and doing away with any mailings.) Ironic, as I still miss filling in those “Little boxes” and circling for individual teams, but times did change. I’m just glad they keep creating new card sets for older seasons. (I wish they’d consider old 1960s-80’s Basketball though)
Looking forward to the 70’s Diamond Gems. Any word on a possible release date?
I LOVE the 1970s Diamond Gems sets! I cannot wait for the 1960s Diamond Gems card sets! I know they are coming because Hal wouldn’t let us old-timers down. LOL!! It’s great being able to play match-ups with these sets, and not have rummage through all my SOM game sets to find them.
