Will we ever get Campfire Songs on vinyl?

As someone who suffers from an unhealthy obsession with Animal Collective and vinyl collecting, this is a necessity! It doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility, as they've released other albums not previously on vinyl at a later date (lookin at you, Spirit!).
What are your thoughts/desires? Am I the only one who yearns for this?

I would love campfire songs vinyl
bit of a problem that the whole thing is recorded in one take, no breaks but I don't think it would be so bad to have side a end at the end of two corvettes

It's always seemed natural to me. When Avey announced the prospect hummer EP on vinyl last year (last year? or 2 years ago? i forget), didnt he mention pressing campfire as well?
Ive personally always wanted it on vinyl very badly, it's my second favorite AC record

it was before they announced PH vinyl, someone asked him on instagram about both releases, he said something like "no plans for campfire songs at the moment, but prospect hummer is coming this year"
edit: found it

I feel like the music and background recordings of the surroundings would mesh even better in a less compressed format such as vinyl. A man can dream, but until then quality headphones will have to do.

Side a ending at the end of two corvettes would probably be the best way to do it.

They have stated before it was a concious choice to put it as CD only release so that theres no breaks in the album iirc

Realistically I could see a break between Two Corvettes and Moo Rah Rah Rain, since that transition isn't much more than background noise for a bit and it splits the album pretty evenly into two halves
I know it goes against the whole "recorded/played/meant to be consumed in one take", but still– were it to be done it could be
Also having that artwork in LP size would be absolutely perfect
