What happens when two irresistible forces meet head on with two immovable objects? We have no idea, but this is what happens when two different toy shows become one to talk all about (and maybe speculate a bit) the upcoming San Diego Comic Con, SH Figuarts Cyclops, and so, so much more. Listen as the boys of AIC are joined by J-Shot and Matchu from Between 2 Sentinels in this re-broadcasting of their epic crossover!
