The only reason why I post this here is because I'm going to mention Ron Tremper's name, and a few other breeders.

if you look at the description..
The Hypo Tangerine has been taken to a whole new level - THE FIREFOX !!

I found this to be pretty funny, has he never heard of a tangerine tornado? lol

What is REALLY funny, is he got most of his Tangerine's FROM TUG. He is selling TUG blood as this new "Firefox" thing.

it seems like tremper is that desperate to keep himself in the gecko spotlight. When Steve Sykes posted "Godzilla", they 170+ gram leopard gecko...

Tremper put this on his Giant Page within a few days..

Several of his sons and grandsons are over 170 grams!!!

Thoughts on the "Firefox" anyone?

I have some nieves tang crosses that have more lavender. He really is reaching at this point, and quite frankly the electrics do look better.

Stop hating on Tremper... He is doing nothing different from any other breeder has done with their tangerine leos... Look at all the tangerine lines with fancey names and a fancey price to match...

I can only speak for myself but in the case of my Electric line, at the time I first began producing them, there were not any others that looked like them. I worked for several years before I got them to consistently produce the same/better looking offspring. I didn't buy a group of Hypo Tangs from Urban Gecko and then the next season market Craig's line as Electrics. That would be disrespectful and dishonest. Yep, I guess Tremper really is lonely at the "top", lonely and grasping at straws as well. Just my 2 cents.

What if Blood Hypo is in there? JMG did mix their lavendar into the Blood's not too long ago. The orange hues at their most intense could look like the Blood's. The only reason I say this is because the intense orange in the saddles looks similar to the Blood Hypo's. Fox's are reddish orange animals as well :) I attached a picture of a Blood Hypo male I own that you could use as a possible comparison? What if Blood and Electric are both in there?

This is just an observation I wanted to share.

Also, Ron Tremper brought us all so many morphs and information that we use today to enjoy this hobby. He has only enhanced my experience as a reptile owner. I thank him for that.

I have much respect for Ron's achievements and all that he brought to reptile breeding. I just disagree with some of his marketing tecniques.

I don't like all his marketing, but as a educated consumer I can choose not to buy.

I honestly have no desire to trash anyone and wish every breeder a prosperous 09. All this his stuff, her stuff only hurts the complete hobby in my opinion and takes the fun out of breeding leos in the long run.
