It’s Bricktober at Toys R Us
This week if you spend $60 or more on LEGO sets or board games you get a free mini-fig 5-pack. There will be a different mini-fig pack each week during Bricktober.
Toys R US says they’ll have LEGO deals all month-long. This week deal is Buy one LEGO set get another for 40% off. But sale excludes Ninjago, Friends and Technic.
I don’t know if you can buy the figures separate. TRU lists them as a $24.99 value so that would be the price. There’s a new set of figs each week, I’d like to get one or two of the sets I’ll have to see what the special is the week the set I want is offered.
I don’t know if this is enough of an incentive to get me to shop there. Prices are just too high. I do really want that female minifig from 2002 though. The rest are just “meh” in this set.

I don’t care too much for this set some of the other sets have a few figs I like like Robin Hood or an old astronaut. You’re right about the prices TRU has a big mark up. I’m hoping for a good sale later in the month. Unless there is a good sale I’ll get bigger sets direct from LEGO to earn VIP points.
People have reported being able to buy the set of figs themselves. There has to be a few figs I want in the same set before I pay $24.99 for it.

Just learned that for October LEGO is doubling VIP points. So another point in LEGO’s favor for my LEGO budget this month. I’m considering waiting till Nov before I buy more sets. LEGO will be at the Memphis Comic and Fantasy Convention. I may just buy sets there.

I’ll be earning some double VIP points this month for sure. I’ll get the new Winter Village set, and maybe the latest MBA series.
