Have you done any research on any of those?

Blue Tongue Skinks are awesome. I have 6 of them. Great pets , you can feed them dog food and greens some bugs now and then and they thrive. Really easy to take care of.

I'm assuming by filled neck dragon, you mean frilled lizard?
Reptiles did a good article on them a couple months back
They seem like there on the more advanced keeper side.
Tomato frogs are really cool! Fun to see eat but other then that, they don't really move.
Reptiles also did a article on the horned frogs. They look really cool!

I'd definitely go with a Blue Tongue or Frilled Dragon(/Lizard whatever )

 

[felix]

Yes

I have kept many reptiles and amphibians and know a lot about each creature, I just dont know which one!

Ah yes, the frilled lizard. I kept a male about 2 years ago, but i ended up selling him as a adult. Essentially the same care as a bearded dragon, however the caging requirement is much, much larger. It's also uncommon to find these captive bred.

agree, frilled lizards need to run, move alot and climb. please do not get a reptile unless you know for sure you can meet all of it's needs in captivity, this is the same for basilisk lizards as well, two popular in the trade that i am aware of that need very large enclosures to thrive.
