You'll never know for sure... And Invader won't authentify it and always say it's a fake in order to prevent from speculators removing the tiles from walls...

Probably fake imo. Like Cedric said, you'll never know for sure and always air on the side of caution.
There's one very similar in the London Bridge area which has a very odd placement. Low to the ground and just doesn't feel right at all. I'll get a picture of it later in the week as it looks very similar, different colours and a more complete panel but just plain odd.

Doesn't look right whatever way you think about it.

5 GBP... no reserve... Weird for a claimed to be original... Anyway, it's worthless on secondary market as it would never get authentified. Methinks the only ones worth something on the art market are the gallery ones, aliases prints and kits.

I was just thinkin if it was real and someone knew from where, I'd buy it and stick it back up where it belongs. Kinda feels like that Pixel Monster rip off though when you look at it. Just doesn't "feel" like Invader to me. But I am new to all this too.

This piece is not documented anywhere, It's just a copycat wannabe.

Saw this when it was actually on the wall a few weeks back. It was on Rupert St, close to where Marks and Stencils was infact. No idea whether it's a real invader but my guess would be no.

Here you go, no doubt in my mind that it's not by Invader Very odd placement for an Invader…  …and shonky construction  |

If it was by PixelMonster it would be on his Flikr. I reckon this is real when I say it in person. It was also mounted on thick wood so maybe thats why he used a metal lattice? This is the PixelMonster version... www.flickr.com/photos/mister_x/251277679/Dosen't seems to compare to me! |

Sorry that was meant to say- after seeing it person I reckon its real.
Also not on Pixelmonsters website. Plus he puts his tiles up in Germany.
