PA_1256 [20 points]
The orange runner made in 2016 "flashinvadered" by Andy on a beautiful sunny Sunday morning in 2022, more than 5 years after invasion. As we speak Paris has 1467 space invaders, the most recent one is installed in June 2021. Invader is having a break apparently apart from his project in Potosi (Bolivia) installing the 4000th space invader on an altitude of +4000 meters.

PA_689 [50 points]
One the biggest projects of Invader in the year 2006 in Paris was this PA_689. About 18 space invaders on a row. Estimated format: 18,5 meters wide, 16 centimeters high. Totally about 7300 mosaïque tiles used for this one.
Re-activated in early 2021 and flashed by me in the evening about 11 months later.

LDN_68 10 points
In March 2025 I had to in London for work. I took the opportunity to do two space invader walks. The afternoon and evening of 17/03 I added 9 space invaders on my list and on 20/03 I added another 8 so in total 17 London space invaders during these days in London.
This 'space target' has seen its fair share over the years and is heavily battered. On the corner of Chesterhouse Street and Farringdone Road. Part of the 4th wave of the invasion of London.

Marseille is the capital of Pastis and the most iconic pastis brand is "51". Love this one near the Vieux Port and La Canabière.
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.

Stewart busy with flashing and photographing the space invader on the beach of La Ciotat (Plage Cyrnos).
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_126 [10 points]
This is a re-activated space invader in the 7ème arrondissement located on the Pont d'Iéna. The original was placed in 1998 but not long after removed by the authorities. Re-activated by Invader in 2008 for the reprint of his book "L'Invasion de Paris 1.0" because there was no proper photo in the first edition. And also this one did not last very long. But now it is part of the re-activation wave by the re-activasion team in Paris and PA_126 can be flashed and added to the FlashInvader galaries.

Another 'glitch' space invader high above the traffic on the Boulevard Périphérique at the South side of the city.

One of the many new old space invaders in Paris. Never seen the 'original' in the early days of my space invader hunt which started somewhere in 2004 and 2005. But this succesful re-activation is flashable with the online game FlashInvaders so the work has been approved by Invader.

PA_801 [20 points]
This space invader on this particular location has everything to do with the French culture. Located on the wall of the house of Serge Gainsbourg. It's the third version. The 2009 original has been deleted a few days after installation, the second one has been re-activated by Invader himself in 2011 and was removed in the same year. This one is the work of the R-Team Paris and made in 2016. The decor is the always chaning graffiti and street art wall in the 7ème arrondissement of Paris, the house of Gainsbourg is in Rue de Verneuil which is not a secret at all.

Second Best "52 Weeks Project"
Since I have been joining the 52 Weeks Project on Flickr it has happened several times that I had to chose between two or more self portraits that week. A difficult choice. The solution is to create a set of all good alternatives. Life is full of choices and sometimes a week has too much opportunities. This is one of those alternatives, the second best. And sometimes just as good.

It goes without saying that the most famous street artist of Paris, France or even the world Invader also contributed to the Capitale(s) exhibition at Hôtel de Ville in Paris.
For this exhibition, Invader worked it out in such a way that he installed his 1475th space invader in Paris here (along with his 1474th) and that the total points of all space invaders in Paris would be 40,000. And all this in the year he placed his 4000th space invader in Potosie (Bolivia).

MARS_39 [50 points]
Invader likes to make such tiled poster mosaics in recent years. This one is located in the neighbourhood Préfecture not far from the 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.

PA_243 [20 point]
A space invader with a rich history and 2 comebacks. The original PA_243 was installed in 1999 and removed off the wall not long after. Invader re-invaded this one to have a photo for his 1.1 version of the book L'Invasion de Paris. This one has been deleted in 2011. In 2016 this one is part of the huge Re-Activation wave in Paris by a group of fans of Invader's work and PA_243 was visible and flashable (the game FlashInvaders) again. And and a piece of cultural heritage is restored and back alive.
