Put a shirt with your scent in the cage so while here is getting used to his new environment he gets used to your scent. It worked great with my tegu. Give the tegu a couple days to adjust before taking him out and playing with him. But I would let him see you around the cage, to get a bit used to seeing you.

He looks good. Congrats! I would let him get settled in a bit before playing with him too much. You want to make sure you keep his stress levels down :)
