it was the Great Winter Storm of aught-8... the wind howled through the ice and snow coated treetops outside my frozen-shut window. a crow called in the distance (i think he was rather cold). suddenly, i saw a dark form moving through the waist-high drifts near the front door. it slowly came closer... and closer. sweat was beading on my forehead and upper lip despite the fact that my heater stopped working and it was roughly 46 degrees in my apartment. i shed blanket after blanket in a grueling effort to reach my phone. picking up the receiver, i heard nothing but silence... the line was dead. had someone cut it? possibly. well, turns out it was just that i had accidentally knocked the wire out of the jack when i frantically removed all the blankets, and the 'dark form' was my landlord coming to tell me that my rent was past due and that, if i wanted, he'd take my Joe collection instead and sell it on a little website called "Hisstank".
seriously, though... i think i was just googling for Joe info and stumbled across it. |

After having met alot of the diffrent personalities that frequent the hiss. I find myself wondering how you all came to be on here voicing you're opnions soft and sometimes loud, haha.
I've been going to yojoe for over 5 years, I saw the banner ad....and you could say temptation finally won out. (which is hard for me) I'm a closet collector shhhhh...........as in I don't parade it around. You are the first group of people that I have EVER had conversations with about Joe-dom. Well long story longer, It was a gooood choice and i'm having fun. Funny how life works. I too am a closet collector... literally. What began as my lady's vanity room has become my very own PIT. Everything from IDW Joe comics (all covers,) star cased figs, UBP, boxed post-25th singles, etc. I've come out of the woodworks just recently and began posting. I have but one tank friend, i think. Two if Destro accepts my request! That's how much a newb i am. But i'm out here contributing as best i can. The experience has been positive. Geek-ery loves company. |

I typed the words WWW.HISSTANK.COM in the internet address field and clicked with my mouse on the "GO" button. That is the true story of how I got here.
Oh, and my chum ADMIRAL SNACKBAR told me about it.

I finally came over to the tank because the yojoe boards kept becoming less and less active. I still like yojoe and all the dudes on it, but the hisstank is a lot more active. I also post on joesightings and cobraisland, but those sites are a lot less trafficked, too.

I used to frequent tfw2005 for about a year before the tf movie came out then I saw an announcement on there for hisstank and have since always considered it the source for all the latest gijoe news.
