I ordered the hardcover (that also includes one copy of the softcover edition) a couple of weeks ago and yesterday (2/9/15) I received the following email.

Thank you for pre-ordering the catalog for The Story of Disneyland!

We just wanted to keep you updated and let you know that softcover catalogs are scheduled to arrive this week. If you selected to pick up your catalog, we will call you when it is ready. If you are having it shipped, we will be shipping them out as soon as we receive them.

If you ordered the limited edition hardcover catalog, we will ship your softcover out to you this week and the hardcover will be shipped to you shortly after.

In the meantime, you should also know...A digital version of the catalog will be online starting Monday (night), February 9th.

The catalog and Online bidding at http://www.icollector.com will begin on Tuesday, February 10th.

The items on icollector aren't cheap. Even the Adventureland Moai salt and pepper shakers start at $100. There is some cool stuff up for auction.

Wow! If the starting bids are close to the true market value, I'm out.

Yowza... It was interesting just looking through all of that (I had no idea Adventureland once had a shooting gallery!). NO way I can afford any of it, of course. Nothing stopping me from saving the jpgs of the really interesting graphic design stuff though!

Not even in the league, those starting prices are insane!

I barely remember the Adventureland Shooting Gallery. In looking for pictures of that one, there used to be one on Main Street too!:

The starting prices are a little...optimistic IMHO. I will be interesting to see what sells in the first round, and if they're going to list things again that did not sell at a lower price.
