Need Help Identifying ((Found A Gem At Reptile Show))

So, I worked the Manchester Reptile Expo today and found a GEM of a tegu there. He's a little wild, but nothing that a little TLC can't knock out of him. Now, I'm absolutely positive we've got a new male on our hands, we've got little spur buds popping out, but I'm curious whether he's all B&W. I picked him up and brought him home because he had SO much white on him. At first I jumped, because I thought he might by like a platinum blue, but we've got no teardrop. So, you guys tell me, do I just have a high white on my hands, or possibly a mix?

The person I bought from said he'd only had him for two weeks. He also said that the last owner paid a pretty penny for him, think of my gasp when all he wanted was $100, so we have no idea about age, parents, and for all I know I could have a Varnyard Giant on my hands. Take a look and tell me what you think. : )

And a video with him and my yearling B&W --> <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slJyKsfg--A" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slJyKsfg--A</a><!-- m -->

Thanks for help!!!

((Looking at him now, he could definitely be related to Blizzard, Varnyards yearling.))

Again,..my vote is for Extreme, 8) just from the head and seeing it next to your normal in the vid. But before the vid I still thought Extreme.

Even with out proof that it has a V or not,.. which isn't always present in.
Extreme or not for $100 bucks,..nice up grade :woot :app
