Congrats, pmc.
The largest ever tomato that I have grown/weighted was a shade under 20 oz. And that was Ananas Noire.

I am surprised there are any leaves on them. When your wild fruit wilts you know it is dry.

Or, you know, people who are polite enough to not want to see carelessly hurtful things said on a forum that's supposed to bring us together around a neutral topic like love of tomatoes.

We can all be careless and rude. It's how we make up for it afterward that is important. When I find myself being careless, rude, and inconsiderate, I try not to turn blame onto the people to whom I've been rude for being oversensitive or "politically correct".

Sorry to hear about your drought, if I could send some rain that way, I would!

Sharpei tomatoes are known to run off when you aren't looking
