You could try ordering through your local petshop- but this has it's hazards; one localish petshop got me one when I'd actually ordered a horned frog! The same petshop later got me an as-yet-unidentified treefrog (probably one of the Litoria species) when I ordered reed frogs...

... I don't use them much now, surprisingly (!) although I took both frogs- and they've both been quite rewarding. On the other hand my LOCAL local petshop, who only keep bog-standard herps 'cos they prefer to know what they are talking about, have always been very good at getting in stuff I've actually asked for- if you have a local retailer you trust, I'd check it out.

EDIT: Actually, check out the 'Giant Frogs' thread in Amphibian Pictures- looks like the poster may have some available at some point.
