PA_170 [50 points]
When Paris opened up after the lockdown to fight COVID-19 on May 11th a huge amount of re-activation took place in Paris. This one is part of this déconfinement re-activations. Located on the Butte de Montmartre and for tourists on the walking route between Sacré-Cœur and Place du Tertre. In full sunlight this one is very hard to 'flash' for FlashInvaders. Too little contrast between the invader and the wall. I have never seen the original of this "big" white invader.

PA_583 [20 points]
Because of the addictive online game 'FlashInvaders' I feel myself urged to revisit a lot of Paris space invaders. Also this one on a not so beautiful location hidden behind Gare Saint-Lazare in the 8ème arrondissement. This Pac Man space invader is almost 10 years active and still in good shape. Invader did a lot of Pac Mans around 2005 and this one is one of the examples which is still visible and "flashable".

INVASION OF VERSAILLES
After two massive invasions at the beginning of the 2017 with Rabat in Morocco and Malaga in Spain and not to forget Forcalquier in France, Invader decided a royal invasion in the land of Louis XIV, in VERSAILLES!
On the 07/06/2017 Invader put up the first invader in Versailles, followed on 13/06/2017 by three others. The first two waves were installed when I visited Versailles. Not realizing that the work was not done at all. After I left Versailles at the last day of my holiday road trip Invader came back 6 times and as we speak (*November 2017) the royal city of Versailles has 19 space invader pieces installed over 8 waves with a total points of 580.
PA_1240 [100 points]
A very high above the ground (8th floor!) double black and white space invader. Another space invader worth 100 points in the same street installed in 2016 (the other one is PA_1205, "house is in da house").
Visited on the perfect moment of the day, the early morning.
This huge project was number 3378 in the world made by Invader. The light is on green for more great space invaders in the world!

A girl on the balcony in the Marais with a space invader. A new to the world style space invader Invader is making recently for cities like Hong Kong, Tokyo and now also in hometown Paris. This girl appeared on Instagram on Invader's page "Invader was here" with the text; Find the girl. Well, I did!
As we speak (December 2014) Invader has invaded 61 cities in the world with a total of 3050 space invader pieces. In Paris the counter is on 1127, this is the most recent now.

ATTENTION:
Location is visible for friends only...there are reports of people trying to steal these space invaders (which is almost impossible without breaking them) and trying to sell on the internet ater repairing them with new tiles etcetera.
Street art belongs to the street!

Another close-up of PA_1005 on the corner of the Rue Oberkampf and Avenue de la République. I already made one in September 2011 but I couldn't find due to the missing PA_-identity (FlashInvaders didn't exist yet in 2011). So this one is more than 10 years after invasion and still in rather good shape.

The sea resort town of La Ciotat has been invaded as well. As we speak (January 2016) a total of 9 invaders installed during 4 waves. This one with FlashInvader colors was installed in the Summer of 2014. Just for the record, it was my personal 350th space invader flashed with the application FlashInvaders.
We didn't have the time to hunt for some other space invaders in La Ciotat. We know there are a few more including a good re-activated one.

PA_683 [30 points]
In August 2006 Invader installed Q-Bert at this corner, codenamed PA_683. For years I thought this one has been deleted till Denis invited me to flash this one in the early morning of 11 February 2015. PA_683 hasn't been deleted at all but is hidden behind a marquise of bar restaurant La Dernière Séance which name is quite appropriate for this early morning adventure. Despite of the fact that I just started with the game FlashInvaders I was invited by Denis to join with some fellow space invader hunters, the 'Top 10' scorers of that game to 'flash' the hidden PA_683. My overnight for work in Paris allowed me to gather with the other space invader enthusiasts at 06h30 in the early cold Paris morning. A ladder was arranged with enables the others to scan Q-Bert PA_683 which is normally hidden from view.

Once again I like to thank Denis and the others for their invitation to share this special occasion to flash this one and to talk to the other pixel fans. I smiled the whole day as an after glow of this early morning space invader adventure.
I'm impressed by the scores of the 'Top 10' of the FlashInvaders game, number one has already scanned 750 space invaders (worth 22,200 points) and the others follow him with already more than 500 space invaders at least. I'm at rank 347 at the moment with 50 space invaders found (in 3 cities) and 1,680 points (13/02/2015).

A camera roll (peolloche) featuring the one and only space invader circling around the planet Earth in the short movie by Invader Art4Space.
I met Manon and Bastian from the area Aix-en-Provence again this afternoon. We flashed CLR_01 together 2 hours before and met again. They came back for a full sunlight photo of this one near the station of Clermont-Ferrand.

THE INVASION OF CLERMONT-FERRAND
The first (two?) invasion wave(s) of the center of Clermont-Ferrand occured in the year 2000 and consisted 8 space invaders, 4 of them are still there (including 1 re-activation) and flashable.
In January 2016 Clermont-Ferrand was invaded again, the 3rd invasion wave took place:
"At the occasion of the screening of the very last version of the movie Art4Sspace at the Interntional Short Film Festival of Clermont-Ferrand, I have added 31 new creations to the city of the center of France. Among various themes, they refer to movies and cinema but also to what Clermont Ferrand is famous for : its gothic cathedrale, its volcanos, its Michelin factories and its Serge Gainsbourg street" (Invader)

A very high above the ground (8th floor!) double black and white space invader. Another space invader worth 100 points in the same street installed in 2016 (the other one is PA_1205, "house is in da house").
Visited on the perfect moment of the day, the early morning.
This huge project was number 3378 in the world made by Invader.

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).
