Time Warp Toys in St. Louis, MO received a case of Black Series Wave 33 containing the new figures from Obi-Wan Kenobi. This is well ahead of the specified release date so hopefully these will hit retail en masse sooner rather than later.
StarWars.com and Hasbro stated yesterday that the Walmart Exclusive Black Series Purge Trooper (Phase II Armor) and 1-JAC will be available for preorder today at 1pm ET.

We will make our best effort to monitor the links we have and update our Linktree as soon as they are live.
Update: After 24 hours, still no movement from Walmart on these two.
Update 2: StarWars.com has updated and now states that the two figures will go up for preorder on Thursday, July 21 at 10am ET/7am PT
