One change I'd make- rather than have 19 temple guard (which don't fit nicely around the Slann if you're going 5-wide, which TG usually do) I'd go with 16.
With those points you can afford 4 more skinks and split it into two small units of skinks, along with 4 extra handlers (2 for each of your salamander/razordon packs). Those units are going to attract some attention so the extra handlers will really help!
Edit: I noticed you don't have a dispell scroll! One way to get one would be to do the above, but only add 2 extra handlers (maybe for whichever unit you think will get closer / draw more attention) and use those 10 points, plus 14 from dropping the revered guardian and 1 you have left over, to get a scroll. You're going to wish you had at least one at some point... like when pit of shades gets cast on your Slann/TG and you don't have any dice left!

stupid AB format, the TG are a unit of 20, and with the slann are in a 6x4 formation. Yes I realize how wide my units are, and I will likely tweak them after play testing them a bit.
I will have to look into finding points for a dispel scroll, although it will likely come at the cost of core skinks.

If you want to find points quickly, eliminate champions. They really don't do anything in the lizard list, and they are very expensive. You have no characters to protect from challenges (slaan hides in middle and can't be in challenge), and your normal warrior unit is tough enough to not take too much damage from normal combat heroes.
