Kidult Extinctor, by Rubys on Sept 19, 2013 3:04:22 GMT 1, The one in New York has been found because he started doing this months ago.
At first he didn't want people to put pics up of it if they found it. I guess he's changed it up that's why he's put the pics up and hasn't hidden any of these for months

Kidult Extinctor, by brendan1985 on Oct 13, 2013 0:55:00 GMT 1, I am in Tokyo, jappanese people would only take it if they knew it was there for that they for that reason, you could leave $1000 cash on the street here and it would still be there next week. Any hints would be greatly appreciated and I would happily return the favor.

Kidult Extinctor, by pada1 on Oct 13, 2013 5:15:08 GMT 1, Love to see one in HK with some hints. So many of his graffitis around here.
But on the opposite side of Tokyo, the moment it will be dropped, some homeless people will jump to it for resale so no chance for collectors and Art lovers.

Kidult Extinctor, by LAZAKY on Oct 16, 2013 13:05:17 GMT 1, There is the L.A one for sale on eBay, the guy says that he did not even know about kidult when he found it in front of his office, after searching on the web he decided to put it on the bay to let real lover a chance to own the piece... It's a 1000โฌ bidding at the moment, gonna value much more in the next years IMO...

Kidult Extinctor, by LAZAKY on Oct 16, 2013 21:20:56 GMT 1, Pretty disappointed to see someone selling it on the bay although to be expected with some people. I have just messaged the seller and politely asked him if he really wants to give it to a fan then to put it back where he got it from and for what it was originally intended for and that was for FREE!! I await an abusive reply
Love your idea lee! This the way this piece have to go! Even if I'm sure we will see some on eBay or auction in the near future...

I await an abusive reply Not sure about the abusive reply, these kind of people usually keep quite. But then, it clearly shows that they no more free art/free spirit, just greedy people.
Sad for Kidult, I always liked his modus operanti and that fighting spirit (the fact he hates brands playing the graffiti card, he is totally right to do so and I support him because these brands playing hype and graffiti/street art card are actually the first one to press charges against people like Princess Hijab, Moustache Man, PosterBoy, etc.) and they all have the best spot because they have the money. Many think that Kidult is an entertainer and paid by the brands themselves, I don't think so ! The guy has balls.
But then greedy people have balls, getting all the free t-shirts and free stuff before I can even press "Buy" ! And some have even here, reading this thread, thinking about the nice t-shirt they got free, still nicely packed in a smoking free environment, wondering if their grand children will profit financially from it.

Kidult Extinctor, by LAZAKY on Oct 17, 2013 9:34:42 GMT 1, you're right mate!
If it's free it has to stay free! Urban art in a general way is going to be the new hype, we can't blame artist that have contract with brand like Eine, Retna and others... This is the way it has to be IMO even if I'm not a big fan of all those collab!
But when a guy like Kidult has balls and real spirit do this kind of action, I don't understand why people try to do benefit with it , I'm sure it cost a lot to him to made those crazy piece, and he did not ask any money for them, this is just give away... I don't care about doing money with art, but not like that! You could buy art, enjoy it and sell it after, doing benefit or not, but this auction is sad! The guy don't even know what he is selling...

Kidult Extinctor, by Rubys on Nov 21, 2013 9:15:23 GMT 1, I worked (from Australia) directing my friend to the location of the latest New York one.
He now has it in his possession. He Skyped me that night and said I can have it, a belated birthday present.
Pretty stoked! Just need to go to NY to collect it

Kidult Extinctor, by Deleted on Nov 21, 2013 9:37:57 GMT 1, You are a lucky guy Mac !! I am glad for you
Sadly, I stopped following the extinguisher story after I hear Kidult placed one in Paris in front of FIAC and people were asked to show stuff on their smartphone, really ?? A smartphone ??
It looked to me as if Kidult is targeting the right people at the right place and has an hidden agenda (getting hyped and climb the arty ladder)... Kidult is loosing credibility, I liked the way he used to target brands and his anti-conformist/rebel graffitis but sorry the latest is bling-bling dust for our eyes, illusion and show-off. I said to Kidult that he better put his extinguisher in southern hemisphere, somewhere when nobody stepped in, where there is no money to make, no greedy people, no flippers... where his sculpture will be use as hanger or table or Xmas tree

Kidult Extinctor, by Rubys on Nov 21, 2013 10:06:54 GMT 1, My mate said there was another guy there when he was searching but he didn't really seem into it.
A little while later the other guy asked my mate what he was looking for, and my mate said "same thing you're looking for" then went back looking for it.
A couple of minuets later he called my friend over and asked him a bunch of questions, "are you a fan of the artist?, are you a collector?" My friend then asked 'are you him?' Which he replied "no, but he's watching you"
The other guy then pointed over my friends shoulder and said " Is that what you're looking for." (Pointing to a shutter above a door) There it was!
My mate then jumped up and got it. Whist the other guy took his photo (can be seen on kidults instagram)
My mate then hailed a cab. He was about to get in one when another guy walked up to him and said "thanks, but please don't sell it" My friend said "no thank you" to which he replied by nodding his head.
@thebigboss I think at the start kidult wasn't targeting certain people and was just leaving them for true fans. But after the LA one was sold on eBay his mindset changed and he had to rethink how to get them in fans hands and not resellers.
