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.

FlashInvaders is a very addictive game by Invader : walk, explore cities in the world, find Space Invaders mosaïcs, shoot them with your Iphone or Andoïd smartphone and score !

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).

Another great example of a re-activation where the original location is not really respected. The original videogame invader which I have never seen was located on a concrete pole on the sidewalk. This one is located bit further in the street and on a wall.

PA_213 [50 points]

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.

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.

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.
