Varieties with 100g+ fruit

Hi! I just want to ask....what are the most productive and recommended varieties in the 100g+ range? Common & Smyrna...

I've had some really big California Brown Turkey figs that were up around 110 grams.  Those were probably brebas, though (the main crop was around 70g iirc), and lacked strong flavor. 

Patricks super giant, Orphan I believe

Rob's Genovese Nero comes to mind.

Zidi, Texas Blue Giant comes to mind.

Armenian
Deanna
Golden Riverside

how about the Pelligrino fig that almost looks like an avocado? it's part of my wish list... it's huge, not sure about the weight though...

Wow... Is that Fig? Never seen fig that big

Vito, thats a monster!! Are you sure thats a fig? Hows the flavor? It really looks good.

@ Ross. The dark one is Schar Israel.

@ Meg. The long Yellow was pure honey, delicious.

@ Meg, the yellow one, is long Yellow

What variety is that Yellow one?

I'm still waiting for my first fig of Schar Israel. Been two years now.

Brian, good things come to those who wait

Last year some of my desert Kings, out of my massive harvest (more than 150 lbs off a 7-year old in-ground tree), were quarter-pounders, over 120 grams.

Nycfig: is it breba or maincrop?

These are main crop figs.  To be fair, the pic of the 'fig in hand' is my 5 year old sons' hand.  Uploaded pics from phone and didn't see that one until this morning!  Impressive nonetheless.  :)
