Mezco Toyz’ retro-themed 5 Points line is exploding as of late, and now adds the classic Godzilla license. Two new box sets are on the way.
5 Points of action
For the uninitiated, “5 Points” is a new line from Mezco Toyz, makers of the awesome One:12 Collective. Unlike that super-detailed, high level line though, the 5 Points lineup is retro-themed. Like some other lines that are popping up right now, these are made to look and feel like the classic action figures of the 80s. And yes, they’re complete with 5 points of articulation.
So far the company has debuted pre-orders for the likes of Batman ’66, Popeye, and a Superman set that looks to be ripped right from the iconic Fleisher cartoons. Now you can add another announcement, with classic Godzilla.
A duo of box sets are joining the line, both themed around Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters. The sets include 4 kaiju each, plus a bevy of accessories. But they differ from all of the above mentioned figures in a big way.
Unlike the usual 5 Points 3.75″ figures, these are a part of an offshoot line called 5 Points XL. While sizes aren’t listed across all of the figures included, we do know that Godzilla himself will be 4.5 inches tall. So these are some beefy little monsters.
Both sets are scheduled to ship out this winter, some time from this November through January of ’22. Each one will run you $85 USD, and they’re up for pre-order right now.
