When I first saw these new Toygraph Mu Aliens, I was hoping they would be in the same scale as the 5" Space Troopers. Unfortunately for me, they are Standard 9" figures. I suppose you can't argue with tradition, but it would have been cool to have some new characters in the Trooper universe. As noted by Japanese cinema savant Kaiju Zoo, these Mu Aliens are from the 1963 Toho film Atragon.
From Wikipedia: Atragon, released in Japan as Kaitei Gunkan (海底軍艦?, lit. "Undersea Warship"), is a 1963 Toho tokusatsu film based on a series of juvenile adventure novels under the banner Kaitei Gunkan by Shunrō Oshikawa (heavily influenced by Jules Verne)
