RTD_15 [20 points]
Another new but old space invader in Rotterdam. This black one with a red reflector in the middle was presumed 'dead' for years but in fact it was hidden safely behind a billboard which have been removed recently. It was already considered 'lost' by Invader as RTD_17 had to be re-activated again in the online application game FlashInvaders.
I accompanied JoeTheCrab with 'flashing' all active space invaders in Rotterdam (8) and Amsterdam (9). It was lots of fun all the way along the space invaders. Re-activating RTD_17 was part of the tour. And this one was new for me as well.

THE INVASION OF ROTTERDAM
In the year 2001 the city of Rotterdam has been invaded by Invader. In 4 days Invader put 26 space invaders (1 hidden bonus) on the walls of Rotterdam. Sometimes hidden sometimes on very visible locations. I took some photos earlier but never put them on Flickr. Eight of the in total 25 space invader are still 'active' in 2015. Two were deleted in 2014 and 2 old new ones came back active (one re-activation and one became visible again due to the removal of a small billboard where it was hidden behind). Rotterdam was the 8th invaded city in the world.

This space invader (location) has a rich history since the invasion in the year 2011. After it has been deleted it was replaced by a mosaïque made by LEGO tiles in the same year. After its removal in 2012 we haven't seen PA_968 till it's (second) re-activation.

This pink, red and white huge space invader is an official space invader worth 100 points. In fact, it is invaluable because of the thought behind it. It is made by Invader and a huge tribute to organ and tissue donors. Given the plaque next to it in collaboration with the Hôpital Kremlin AP-HP.

This yellow and black invader is located in a climbing narrow winding street in a residential area of Villefranche-sur-Mer. Not easy to find but a pleasure when you find this one in the afternoon with full sunlight. FlashInvaders says "CONGRATULATION! when flashing this one. Re-invaded in the year 2016. According to Google Streetview this was still there in 2010 (3 years after invasion).

INVASION OF THE CÔTE D’AZUR
In the year 2007 Invader has invaded the entire coast of the French Rivièra. Instead of only one city he made a project of an entire region; Côte d’Azur. Spread out from La Ciotat to the Menton near the border of Italy.
The first wave consisted of 35 space invaders spread out over 24 cities with a total score of 990 points. In 2016 Invader put one invader up in Cavalaire-sur-Mer (CAZ_36) and in 2017 wave number 3 consisted another single one (CAZ_37).
Lots of them have been deleted throughout the years but there are already are about 9 space invaders re-activated.
PA_1136 [30 points]
Apart from and PA_1137 and PA_1138 which are installed the same night, this one is not installed in the Northern outskirts of Paris ("93") but in the 12ème arrondissment of Paris. Well visible from departing and arriving trains from and at Gare de Lyon.
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!

A revisit to this Megaman space invader in the 6ème arrondissement to 'flash it' (the game FlashInvaders in full swing on my smart phone since February 2015). To my surprise I found this one protected behind acrylic glass. No idea who did this but it is the first time (apart from the only surviver in Aix-en-Provence) I have seen this in Paris. Protect them all, the work of Invader can already be considered as cultural heritage.

BXL_15 [20 points]
Sometimes a re-activated space invader and its spot are better and more beautiful than the orginal one. BXL_15 is a good example of it. The building has been totally refurbished and the space invader is now new as well.
The city of Brussels has been invaded in 2012. Invader put up in total 40 space invaders during one single wave between 08/03/2012 and 15/03/2012 with a total score of 1130 points. Seven of these invaders are worth 50 points. No 10 or 100 points space invaders in Brussels.

A walk through Paris with the sole purpose of flashing the reactivated space invader in the Rue de Tolbiac; PA_876...
Location: Rue de Tolbiac, Paris 13ème
Coordinates: 48°82'64"N 2°36'37" E
Reason: I had a nice walk with a friend living near Marne-la-Vallée who doesn't want his picture on the media through Paris. I decided to take him to this part of Paris and realized that PA_876 was also missing from my online game FlashInvaders. Another 30 points on the counter and a nice walk through the neighbourhood of Peupliers and Butte aux Cailles. It ended with a nice dinner on Place d'Italie.
Rue de Tolbiac: A 2 715 meters long street in the 13ème arrondissement of Paris in the quartier Maison-Blanche. This street owes its name to the battle of Tolbiac, victory won by Clovis in 496 against the Alamans. The town of Tolbiac, which today bears the name Zülpich, is located in the region of Cologne, Germany.
PA_876: The original of PA_876 was put up almost 10 years prior to this photo. Deleted somewhere in 2013 and re-activated in February 2020 before the confinement (lockdown).

A good example of a re-activated space invader I forgot to revisit for a FlashInvaders treatment. Done when I was walking from PA_942 to the métro station.

PA_233 [10 points]
A still original space invader of 1999 on the wall of a 22 storey high residential building (Orphee Résidence) in the 15ème arrondissement of Paris. The test of time has played a part. I have a photo of 2003 (pre-Flickr time) as well of this one. I still had to "flash" this one and I was in the neighbourhood to visit re-activated PA_174. Good to see an original space invader with the age of 20 years and 8 months (7555 days to be exact) invader still active with only 5 tiles missing.

MARS_90 [50 points]
One of the two space invaders outside Cité Radieuse in the quartier Sainte-Anne. Best seen from the roof of Hotel Le Corbusier where the exposition Invasion Planete Marseille took place. Invader was invited to do a site specific installation at MaMo, the arts center created by Ora-ïto atop of La Cité Radieuse in Marseille. For the occasion, I have turned the exhibition space into an strategic base and pushed back the symbolic and physical limits of the place by carrying out an exhibition-invasion at the scale of the entire city of Marseille.
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.

Another Paris space invader I have never seen before. Thanks to the re-activator of this blue 10 points worth space invader I was able to flash my 1209th space invader in Paris (out of 1467, which makes 82.4% of all invaders in Paris).

A green little space invader in the neighbourhood Oude Westen but within a few minutes walking distance of the Centraal Station. Encountered this space invader earlier but never uploaded this one here on Flickr at the time. Try to (noodle hot-) spot the re-acetivated space invader.

THE INVASION OF ROTTERDAM
In the year 2001 the city of Rotterdam has been invaded by Invader. In 4 days Invader put 26 space invaders (1 hidden bonus) on the walls of Rotterdam. Sometimes hidden sometimes on very visible locations. As we speak (*January 2019) about 18 of 26 space invaders are there. Ten of them due to the work of the re-activations. Eight of them are still the original space invaders of 2001 put up by Invader.
