Book Reversion & Republication Question for Authors

I'd wait the 90s days, just in case. This has never happened to me though. I self-published all three trilogy books using my OmegaBooks sole proprietorship, then had Lulu publish all three novels in one The Prodigal Band Trilogy. As for Amazon, if Lulu ever decides to stop publishing it I can always post all three to Amazon or wherever independently. I reckon that means wait until August 20 or so.
I received the rights back to my book from my publisher on 5/18. They did ask me to wait a few weeks to 90 days until it's been removed from all retail sites. I've checked, and it has been been removed except on Walmart which shows the old book cover with NOT AVAILABLE to purchase. My question is:
If you are ready to republish to all retail sites (not going through Kindle Unlimited), would you go ahead and publish, or wait the entire 90 days? Has anyone ever republished within a week or two after reversion?
Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.
