So is this essentially Sasori + 3 Kage VS Pain? I don't know if the puppets equal the Kage in strength, but if they do, pretty fun match-up.

The only Kage that posed a real threat to Pain were Onoki and Ay, and considering those are two of the puppets, Pain is gonna have some trouble. Single-body Nagato would just nullify Onoki's dust release with Preta path, and Pain could do the same thing, but it would be much more difficult to protect the other paths. Let's not forget Ay's speed, but I think Deva has exhibited the feats to react to him with Shinra Tensei in time, also with the fact that he can choose to use it without the need to say it or move his arms.

I'm not well-informed on the abilities of this Sasori filler, but I'd venture to say that Pain wins this mid to mid-high difficulty. I think Pain would see this as a threat enough to use Chibaku Tensei or Chaotic Shinra Tensei to end the fight.
