So if you spend $75, do you get both Volume 1 and the Quad Minifigure?

I don't have much experience with this, but from what I think I've read regarding other TRU promotions, it may vary depending on your store. Some stores may automatically give both, some may only give both if you ask/push'em, and some may not let you have both.

it says "excludes clearance"

While this is in fact probably an attempt to clear them out, I don't think they are technically clearance. TRU usually does some really big discounts for a few items during Bricktober, so I expect this is just that, the sale for the first week. But, I will be there tomorrow, so I'll let you know for sure.

Toys R Us truck here I come! Way too expensive at regular price. The SW set is a good deal too. Way too much dust on them at my TRU.

Oh I'm so glad I held off that Toys'R'Us Truck set for this long. It's finally time to pounce on it. :-D
EDIT: This is for Canada only? DARN IT!

can you get the 4 minifigs when you purchase online - or only in store?

Just called 2 most closest TRU retail stores, both of them already sold out all Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter :(

and only one free set can be choose even if you purchased more than $75 :(

Wow, no double freebie? To be honest, I only want the vintage collection for the classic Spacemen in all colours.

Front page led me here, I should be more careful lol (all I saw was the price of the Toys'R'Us truck and "Toys'R'Us Bricktober sale"). :lol:

Just back from the Markville Mall TRU and can confirm that if you spend $75, you get both the Volume 1 Vintage minifig pack and the Quad polybag. In fact, you can get multiple of them as long as you qualify. The TRU truck was going fast, looked like half the stock in the aisle was gone as soon as it opened.

My first post!

Just FYI - went to local TRU (Saint John, NB) around lunch today and they had at least ten of each left of the two big sets left. They also gave me one of each of the free promo sets (75$ and $35 ones) without asking. YMMV of course.
