You're talking about all pedals here, it sounds like?
Those pedals ought to go into the front of an amp anyways. You wouldn't use a tuner pedal through an effects loop ever. Get yourself a pedalboard, wire them up in the best possible order (tuner first since you can mute the whole affair to tune and you don't want anything affecting your tuner signal)
I would do:
tuner- wah- whammy- delay- and reverb last...
Talk box ought to go before delay.
there's some margin for a different order but I'd keep delay before reverb last.
Finally, check your reverb settings in both channels and adjust so that it sounds good in both. One channel will probably sound "wetter" overall than the other.

No effects loop for the AD series. Just about the only thing i'd like to have in a loop would be delay. It doesn't bother me that much that I don't have a loop. Billy's got some extravagant device that he uses... not sure what it does precisely. If you've got a spare £1000 you might want one, otherwise don't bother!

Well they already put in a Vu meter in it to bias the amp!

possible....but basically matamp will include ANY cool stuff in their amps as long as it's possible and you can afford it. Have you guys seen their cigarette lighter equipped amps? cool idea, even though I don't smoke.
