Clone Wars sets are in!

The hardest thing is to figure out which brick-and-mortar stores, be it US of A or elsewhere, to find what sets in and when.

:edited with updates:

So far I know that Toys R Us has:
1. Separatist Spider Droid
2. Twilight

The general release items are:
1. At-Te Walker
2. Republic Attack Gunship
3. V-19 Torrent
4. Magnaguard Starfighter

Wal-Mart is carrying today:
1. Droid Gunship

Target(?) should be doing their usual Fall endcap including:
1. Republic Fighter Tank

San Diego ComicCon, we've already missed it, little chance for more at the limited price/numbers at the convention:
1. Clones vs Hailfire Droid Battlepack exclusive ($$$)

I believe these are the corrected available locations for everything known so far.

I haven't found these either, even at the LEGO store near me.

I must say I really dislike the new minifigs, especially the new specifics(Jedi and Clone commanders). They are too cartoonish and too "showy".
The sets themselves vary, but the Republic Fighter tank looks like a streamline master piece, and so does the V-19(which I understand is highly technical). Everything else is ehh, I'm very disappointed with the new Republic Gunship.

I have found through extensive scouring that the Droid Gunship is available today at Wal-Mart stores for $29.98 +/-, and the Republic Tank will be available at Target in September (A class stores) and possibly October (Mass Target release?) as an exclusive for an uncomfirmed price. I have heard $49.99 +/- to be the most likely price for this item. Sorry all you non-Target people. Perhaps we can work the hook-ups out early?

The sets look okay, but the twilight looks really bad and for 120$ It's a waste of money. I don't like the minifigs though the clones are okay, my favourite of all the new figs. But the cheapest set to get them is 40$

I wish they just made some more Attack of the clones sets not these, although the Republic Fighter Tank is a sweet set.

Over all a would rate the theme 4/10

Sorry, this theme really didn't live up to my expectations.
