meta query multiple values for the same key

Have you tried passing an array of values to the value argument?

$your_terms = array( 'foo', 'bar', 'baz' );

$args['meta_query'] = array(
    'relation' => 'OR',
    array(
        'key' => 'customfields',
        'value' => $your_terms,
        'compare' => 'REGEXP'  
    )
);

$this_query = new WP_Query( $args );
