Yeah, I think they realised that there was no way we'd hit $735k, but we *might* hit $730k.

In his case, it is because he plays illegal underground games of Dreadball, as opposed to the clean, sanitised version we've seen thus far...

Congrats Strikers and Jacks  you get Blaine! From the comments:
Mantic wrote:Hello everyone. Wow - what a ride!!!
So, the bad news is that we just missed Blaine.
The good news is that there is well over $1015 already pledged via paypal - and what do you expect your favourite minaitures company to do?
We will include a Blaine figure in every pledge above Jack!
Thanks for the most exciting ride over the last month. There will be a proper update about this and what happens next very soon. Then the hard work in getting it made and sent to you will begin!
I hope to see you a at show or store soon for a game of Dreadball - the sports game of the future!

IIRC, there's 7 days for all the Amazon payments to resolve, and I think someone said Mantic doesn't get all the pledger information for another two weeks after that - having said that, let them get some sleep tonight, and I'm sure we'll get a structured update tomorrow or Tuesday.
