Looks like the initial rumors were on the right path as The Clone Wars series will be making it's way to DVD on March 24, 2009...well, at least the first 4 episodes.
"Four of the most popular episodes from the hit animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars will come to DVD from Warner Home Video and Lucasfilm Ltd. on Tuesday, March 24. The release of Star Wars: The Clone Wars "A Galaxy Divided" marks the very first time the weekly adventures from Lucasfilm Animation have been available on the format.
The hit weekly animated series debuted this fall on Cartoon Network. It's the first TV series from Lucasfilm Animation that chronicles the adventures of Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Ahsoka Tano and other favorite Star Wars characters as they struggle against the dark side during the divisive, action-packed Clone Wars.
Star Wars: The Clone Wars "A Galaxy Divided" ($19.98, SRP) showcases four exciting episodes: "Ambush," featuring a showdown between Jedi Master Yoda and the villainous Asajj Ventress; and the three-episode "Malevolence" story -- "Rising Malevolence," "Shadow of Malevolence" and "Destroy Malevolence." In the "Malevolence" episodes, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano and Obi-Wan Kenobi lead a mission to find and destroy a massive warship that is under the command of General Grievous."
