Recommend a lizard

So I cannot get a tegu/ monitor until I'm in my own place. But I still really want a cool lizard. I wish shingle backs where cheaper/ more common because I think they're awesome. I like that tegu attitude if "I'm a big lizard but I'm super chill" I would consider a blue tongue skink but their shape disturbs me. So what do you guys has in mind?
Ackies and timors are out of the question because I can't find ackie a anywhere and you can't hold a timor.

The problem with frill necks is that once they get used to you, they don't frill anymore. They generally only frill when they're stressed and upset which is not what you want in a pet lizard.

Oh yeah, I get that, but I was just wondering what he thought of them. Me personally, I wouldn't worry if they never frilled if I owned them, wouldn't keep them for that.

Those are cool but I've just never been into them. It's because they remind me of the Jesus lizards that overrun my area

Bearded dragon. I know "everyone has one" but that's because they're chill and awesome pets. I had to get rid of mine when I moved, but I miss her! Or, if you want something smaller and a little more unique, get a Rankins Dragon.

Uro's! If you want a big one, get an Egyptian uromastyx. Super cool, big, chill and freaking adorable.

You could always go for a sheltopusik. The European legless lizard. Big lizard, no legs. I've got a friend who has a pair and they're pretty interesting.

I've never understood a leg less lizard. Wouldn't that make it a snake? Confused...
