Charlie's Angels in -how very appropriate- Rue des Dames in the 17ème arrondissement. Flashing this one with the app FlashInvaders will result in the flash message "Good Morning Charlie!".
Charlie's Angels is an American crime drama television series that aired on ABC from 1976 to 1981, producing five seasons and 110 episodes. This space invader was number 3449 in the world.

One of the forgotten re-activations in Paris I had to visit, to flash and to capture. I have only seen the re-activation, the original was visible before my passion for this kind of street art.

The famous French tricouleur appeared as a space invader in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris. How French can an invasion be? In 2011 however this one was deleted and therefor never 'flashable' with the application game FlashInvaders introduced in 2014. But thanks to the outstanding job of the re-activators this one is back in the street where it belongs and flashable.

This 'big' space invader has been re-activated by one of the many fans in August 2015 and unfortunatelly removed from the wall not long after. The original dated from 1999 and didn't survive till the space invader hunters of today have spotted them. This one was shortly visible and 'flashable' (the application game FlashInvaders) for the fans.
And don't worry about freshness of the tomatoes Burger King uses.

This yellow ground invader has recently been re-activated again by one the many re-activators. This type of space invader has to endure a lot of wear and tear from all the public that walks over it every day. Unlike my first visit in 2020, all the tiles are still in place.

Professsional space invader hunters Hadrien and Paul were happy to pose with their Flashinvader devices to give PA_1186 some animation in this silent street along the tracks. Thanks guys!

Another close-up of PA_1005 on the corner of the Rue Oberkampf and Avenue de la République.

PA_1137 [30 points]
A new BubbleBobble space invader near Paris. In the same night Invader installed PA_1136 and PA_1138 in the same night. The story behind the fact that I was so quick to find this one was the fact that I found this one of Instagram when I was on my way to Paris and I was Lucky enough to have a 2-hour break which enabled me to travel to this location a bit outside Paris (North-East).

I had to take the bus for it, had to walk a long way and eventually it turned out that the site was closed due to a major renovation. And it was too far for the FlashInvaders application to recognize it. And the space invader was already badly damaged. The 30 points were not awarded to me.
MARS_74 sits on the wall of the Musée d'art contemporain de la Ville de Marseille (mac), closed at the moment.
Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 and 3 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 4 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.

One of the results of the re-activation wave of the Summer of 2018 is also this cyclope near Cours Julien, the street art walhallah of Marseille.
Thanks to the re-activation wave in Marseille I was able to flash all 13 space invaders of Marseille (August 2019).
Marseille has been invaded 13 times devided in 3 invasion waves and the total points in Marseille is 220 points. The first invasion wave took place in the Summer of 2004 with in total 11 space invaders, two other waves occured in 2014 (2019).
