Hashirama gains distance (because a Taijutsu brawl against all 5 would get him killed), sends forth large Wood Styles (Dragon or Forest at least)...but oh wait! Gaara counters with massive Sands too (Tsunamis or Sand Prison Claws or Sandstorms etc) to keep him busy...Hashirama powers up to Wood Golem or lets say maybe even the Buddha...

All it takes: Tsunade transfers all her Hyakugao chakra (just in case) to Ohonki, who hooks onto Raikage...

Earth Style: Ultra-LightWeight Boulder (one he used on meteor) + Lightning Armor Teleportation (Top Speed punch speed) + Particle Style: Boundary Dismantling (one he used on 25 Susanoos)...

No matter how BIG or how large Wood Style would be, point is as long as they can locate where the REAL Hashirama is and use the above combo..he dies...and it would be fast enough to execute before Hashi attacks.

However, like I said before, they would still make Hashirama win because of Plot/ Character fave etc. well it's not necessary that he will die in taijutsu with 5 kages given that he already has tsunade's monster strength in base and if he enters sage mode he will also have extraordinary reflexes with a further huge boost to his taijutsu so no they will not win in taijutsu even with weighted boulder jutsu. if tsunade blindly gives her chakra to even one of kage is like suicide (since she has to use this chakra to heal any damage as well as replenish chakra)since they don't have a very good sensory type they could waste all of it in destroying the wood clones and since he is in sage mode it would be very difficult to catch him offguard. the fight is more like that of endurance and stamina so no way the would win it given that he can enter sage mode at any given time.also nor do they have any skilled genjutsu user nor any special feat in overcoming genjutsu if Hashirama uses 'harbinger of darkeness' in sage mode it would be a whole other level than what we saw in the fight against hiruzen.so I think hey will have a tough time countering him. Hashirama wasn't a favourite until part 2 and besides it's because of his jutsu,capabilty etc that's he is a favourite to win the fight not the other way round.
