Congrats!
When I renewed my GC last time around they put a sticker on the back of it extending it for 12 months because of a production back up in Nebraska.
I got my new card 3 weeks later.

Re: Card production backlog = circa 12 months
An email was sent to the bar assoc on Friday explaining that the production of GCs will be slowed/halted due to renovations at the card production center, and that the stamp should now be for 12 months not six months....
A DHS/USCIS officer who overheard our interview popped into his colleague's office/corral/workspace (ie our interviewer) with a piece of paper when he saw that our interviewer had his stamp out... The paper was the copy of an email that had arrived 10 mins earlier, explaining the above info.
Almost too late....but not quite...phew...
So, I'm already up to my second I-155 stamp! (The six month one was cancelled.)
