Superman Goes Retro With New Mezco Toyz 5 Points Boxed Set

Mezco Toyz continues to expand their vintage-inspired toy line, 5 Points, as they debut their newest set with Superman and The Mechanical Monsters Deluxe Boxed Set. The Man of Steel is back again for this deluxe set with an appearance from the classic 1940's Fleischer cartoon. The set includes 4 figures with Lois Lane, Mechanical Monster Number 5, Superman, and Clark Kent. Each figure will feature 5 points of articulation, and Mezco Toyz has included swappable hands for both Superman and Mechanical Monster Number 5.

Some of the Superman 5 Points Boxed Set will also have a quick change phone booth to have collectors with from Clark Kent to Superman with ease. The packaging will also turn into a double-sided playset with Mad Scientist Lab or a Jewelry Storefront. This is a great collectible for any Man of Steel fan, and the 5 Points Boxed Set is priced at $90. It is set to release between September – November, and pre-orders are already live and located here.
