INVASION OF KÖLN
The city and region of Köln counts a total of 27 space invaders divided over 3 waves. The first wave was in October 2006 and counted 3 space invaders, the second in February 2007 at the same time as the exhibition "Bad Man" in Galerie Joellenbeck. In 2015 a third wave followed in the European Astronaut Center (EAC) in ESA as part of the Space2ISS project.
I had already visited the latter on April 19, 2017 without visiting the other space invaders. I visited, flashed and photographed the others in February 2024.
My score for Cologne is: 22 of the 27 flashed, 1 could not be flashed and 4 were already deleted at the time of my visit.

A fifty points worth re-activated runner in the 12ème arrondissement of Paris. I went there to flash this re-activated space invader after 15h00 because I was informed that this one doesn't "flash" very well in full sunlight.
The walls of the Pont National changed and the bridge has been widened so the re-activation took place on almost the same spot, but a bit more to the front.

Till this morning I found in total 60 space invaders in Marseille out of in total 97. I had to travel far outside the center to get some more on my list. I used a shared electric bicycle to drive along the coast in the direction of Montredon, Les Goudes and Callelongue. For this blue octopus on the Plage des Sablettes in Montredon I had to cycle 10 kilometers.

Due to the fact that I'm participating in the game FlashInvaders I will be revisiting a lot of active space invaders in Paris. This 2011 Mario character was one of them during my cold but sunny morning walk throught the 15ème, 14ème and 13ème morning walk. Still active after almost 4 years and now featuring GZ'UP and Anne Hidalgo, madame la maire.

Roadtrip [9] 16/06/2017
On the planning of my last day of this holiday and roadtrip was my ride home via a hypermarket in the North of Paris, Valenciennes and Charleroi (for the one and only but huge space invader mural), Brussels, Antwerp and Utrecht.
I left hôtel Ibis Nogent-sur-Marne at 08h55 and went to Vincennes to photoflash space invader PA_1282 and I revisited Versailles to find the one I didn’t find yesterday (VRS_03). I spent only 40 minutes in Versailles and went via McDonald’s Créteil N6 to Carrefour Parinor to do my shoppings. Finally left Carrefour and the région Paris at 14h30 to go North. Via A1 (Autoroute du Nord) and A2 (Cambrai, Denain, Maubeuge). At 17h11 I arrived in Charleroi to photoflash CHAR_01. Had my last meal in a very nice and new McDonald’s restaurant in Charleroi and drove away here at 18h31. Had a break at Oosterhout at Andy from 20h41 till 21h55 and arrived finally at home at 22h48. Driving 643.4 kilometers in total today (291 km in France [45.3%], 234 in Belgium [36.4%] and 118 km in the Netherlands [18.3%])
The grand total this holiday and roadtrip was 3,688 kilometers.

In total 4 new flashable space invaders in Rotterdam since July 28th. Thanks to the re-activation team two totally new (re-activated) space invaders for me and two flashable ones.
This one is located in the neighbourhood Oude Westen and just a few minutes walk from RTD_20.
I went there for the first time within 2 days after re-activation but came back for a better photo with more sunlight. This transformer house seems to be a landmark in this part of Rotterdam. The world is yours!

THE INVASION OF ROTTERDAM
In the year 2001 the city of Rotterdam has been invaded by Invader. It was the 8th city in the world being invaded. 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 (*September2019) about 21 of 26 space invaders are there. Fifteen of them due to the work of the re-activations. Seven of them are still the original space invaders of 2001 put up by Invader.

MARS_12 [50 points]
Together with another invasion wave in La Ciotat in the Summer of 2014, Invader put two new space invaders on the walls of Marseille as well. The game 'FlashInvaders' was just introduced, the reason for the 'FlashInvaders' Summer colors.
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 9 space invaders. The most recent one, MARS_13 (photo by Denis) near Gare Saint-Charles has been destroyed in the Spring of 2015 due to renovation works on the building.

One of the re-activators has qualified him or herself re-invading on the bitume surfaces on the sidewalks and roads of Paris. This is a good example of that. Some tiles were already missing but still visible and flashable and can be considered "in the pocket"/"dans la boîte".

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_1105 [? points]
A new space invader featuring Cost. Cost is the tag name of a graffiti writer who, from the early 1980s to the mid-1990s, blanketed New York City and the surrounding metropolitan area with his wheatpaste stickers, spray paint tags and paint-roller pieces. Cost, whose real name is Adam Cole, is perhaps most widely known for his collaboration with another New York graffiti artist, Revs.
I saw this new space invader from the métro and got off immediately to take some shots of this one. I was lucky with the fact that this one was in full sunlight.
