A local fella breeds both forms. The giant ones are at least double the size.

Sorry, but I can not believe it ... These geckos reach 26 cm?)))
I spoke with Neil Meister, his animals are 14cm.

Not twice the length of a normal phantasticus, but twice the overall size. However maybe double was a bit excessive. Definitely a noticeable size difference. I never weighed them just saw them through the cage, which were Neil's geckos. They geckos were about an inch longer than the normal ones but looked more heavy set and taller bodied.

It would be lovely to see a phantasticus that was close to a foot though!
