I doubt it. They said multiple times that it wouldn't be available for long after it was over, and I don't think there'd be enough demand to do another run. The reason I think they did it like they did was because they're only going to make how many orders there are. But I'm not sure.

They did sell out of pre-orders near the end. James had to go perform arcane magicks on the store to permit further sales. So whoever was saying about round number orders is likely correct.

Well, seeing as I don't think it's been shipped yet, it may take a bit.

Last year, mine took until March 29 to reach me.

Thanks. This is my first time buying so I just wasn't sure when to expect them.

They're being shipped by PA this year as well, so that'll change shipping times. Should (hopefully) speed them up.

I think they are 14 by 20. That was the size of last year's, anyway. I'm not 100% sure.

At this rate, I'm wondering if I'll get my DB poster before my DB prizes. That'll be a weird inverse of last year. :D

I received mine today! :)

Note to the LRR team (and anyone else who deals with posters): I know you have no control over this now that it's in PA's hands, but there's something about posters you should know. If there are plans to mount or frame a poster-sized thing, roll it so the face is out, not in. The poster I received was face-in.
My dad was quite visibly dismayed both years when he saw the MtG uncut sheets were rolled with the face in. As a professional printer, he knows first-hand that it's 10 times harder to get a poster mounted correctly if it's rolled face-in.

The argument I hear coming is "Well, if you roll it face-out, if damage happens, it'll be applied to the face instead of the back." This is why you use another sheet of paper the same size to protect it.

So, if you receive anything rolled face-in and need to ship it back out, please consider re-rolling it so it's face-out instead.

LRR poster taken out of frame and DB6 poster has replaced it. I've also swapped the position of the DB5 poster, so the DB6 poster is what I see when I wake up and DB5 is next to my bed.

Now, I need a frame for the LRR poster.

I'm getting my Desert Bus 6 poster signed by William Shatner this weekend at Shore Leave, since he's on it. :)
