The spikes and body shape reminded me of a furcifer antimena

Thanks for the replies. I'm inclined to think that it is not a furcifer antimena, the images come from a low resolution video but I think the facial protuberance is quite different.
The seller has identified it as Kinyongia fischeri, but a quick scour through this forum shows that species to be pretty much inexistent in captivity. On a side note does anyone have any resources regarding Kinyongia multituberculata?

There’s always lots of similarities within the Kinyongia and Furcifer species.

I belief the Fischeri is more a larger version of the Boehmei and their dorsal spikes aren’t that big as the multituberculata. My guess is that they’re pretty similar with the boehmei

That Kinyongia species I am going to ID as Kinyongia multituberculata.
