This big green space invader in Le Marais is part of the 127th wave in Paris and is number 4087 in the world. As we speak (July 2023) still the most recent Paris space invader. Followed by the invasion of both Fontainebleau (18 invaders) and München (18 invaders).

A re-activated 2-D space invader right accross Centre Pompidou. At the time I fount this one for the first time I estimated the year of invasion 2004 or 2005. FlashInvaders was not live at that time and the second edition of the Invasion of Paris 2.0 was not issued as well.

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)

The last space invader during this stay in Marseille. In total I flashed 46 new space invaders (worth 1710 points on FlashInvaders). This invader is located in the market area of Marseille and it shows.
Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.

The show of four new space invaders (PA_1556 thru PA_1559) on February 19, 2026 started here in Montmartre with this PA_1556.
A striking detail is that these four (PA_1556 through PA_1559) use a new type of mosaic tile with a slightly curved front. I'm posting these four in the order I visited and flashed them. I came to Paris on the beautiful sunny day of February 25th to photograph these four in good lighting conditions.

This 50 points worth blue big space invader along the A557 became a personal milestone for FlashInvaders for me as this was my 1400th space invader flashed since I started this online game in 2015.

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.

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).

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.

MARS_82 [20 points]
Cours Julien was already invaded during the first wave in 2004 with two invaders but during the third invasion Invader came back to install this one of the wall on the Escaliers du Cours Julien.
Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.
Onscreen FlashInvaders message: BRAVO!

A space invader featuring a 'reflect eye' in the 8ème arrondissement. This one is a reactivated classic low mounted space invader. I have never seen the original before.
