Hisstank (along with Toyark and Tokunation) were spun out of TFW2005. We might have...inherited...some of the regular posters from Yojoe, but this forum was created well before that point.

That site could use a major refresh/overhaul. Truth be told, I am in the process of working (starting work) on a new GIJOE fan site and I'd love to take a crack at creating a solid reference for the toys. I just don't really have the time I need to really devote myself to it right now.
And that’s the big rub, isn’t it? Carson Maxis deserves ENORMOUS props for what he managed to create with 3DJoes. But even HE has remarked how hard it has been, and even then, the site still has some major gaps in the line’s later years.
But at this stage, a major refresh and overhaul is going to require time and, more importantly, passion and money that I’m just not seeing in the Joe fandom right now. As a fandom, we reached a DAMN low point in 2018 or so, and while activity has picked up with the release of Classified, we’re still leagues away from where the fandom was 10, much less 20, years ago.
Yojoe’s death certificate was signed the moment it was sold off. I hold NO sympathy for certain individuals now that a large, faceless, company has changed the locks and taken away privileges. The fact the site couldn’t maintain the database with releases dropping off to almost nothing says a LOT to the investment Vertical Scope had in the site and the interest in the remaining (unpaid) staff to maintain the assorted databases.
