PA_768 [10 points]
Space invader number 768 in Paris and number 2097 in the world was deleted in the same year of its invasion but was re-activated and deleted several times. This time it was my turn to capture it for the first time and flash it. A remark: the original version was not green but turquoise.

LCT_07 [50 points]
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.

Another seaside space invader which is a bit hard to reach. Not for the close-up but more for the wider shot of this one. Most of the harbor is privat territory.

Three re-activated space invaders at the same prime location, the three air shafts of Centre Pompidou. Never seen these three space invaders at the same time. Great job of the re-activators.
I was afraid these three would have been removed within a few days or weeks, but these tripple space invaders are already more than half a year untouched where they belong...visible and flashable in the street.

An 'outlined' orange space invader of the very first generation recently being re-activated around 30/03/2015. This 30rd space invader in Paris did not have such a long life. The re-activation was made by one of the very active players of the game FlashInvaders. Hopefully this time PA_030 will stay a bit longer.

An animal friendly space invader with a message for people considering getting a cat or a dog. Before buying one, check out an animal shelter.
Invader was asked to do something to this problem by a volonteer of the shelter. And Invader did!
This PA_1435 was the first space invader installed in the year 2020, it was 3859 in the world.
Unfortunately, this invader is more overgrown than six months earlier at the time of the invasion. Pruning needs to be done.

The original of this yellow space invader in the 16ème arrondissement was deleted in the year 2008 but came back re-activated in July 2016. Great work of the re-activator of this work. The reason for the re-activations is not only the game FlashInvaders but also the will of the fans to bring back the space invaders in the street from the perspective of cultural heritage.

PA_1434 [30 points]
A space invader with a gambling factor. Or the blinds are closed and you can capture the whole invader, or you have bad luck and the blinds are open and you can only see what you see here.

Invader went to Vincennes for this beautiful 'BIG" invader. Easily accessible by métro line 1 from the center of Paris. The station to get off for this one is Bérault.

La mosaïque originale signée Invader avait été posée par Invader le 2 février 2003.
Elle avait été arrachée, puis a été réactivée en 2018.
La plupart du temps, la mosaïque est cachée par le paravent d'un café, et le personnel du café ne donne pas l'accès à la mosaïque car il faut bouger des tables pour rabattre le paravent. On peut voir la mosaïque pendant les heures de fermeture du café - car alors on peut librement bouger le paravent sans déranger.
Donc il faut aller sur place entre 1h30 et 6h00 du matin.
Photo prise vers 1h30 du matin.
Sur Flashinvaders, cette mosaïque vaut 10 points.
CAZ_03 [50 points]
A big tiled blue space invader in one of the major shopping streets in the center of Cannes. When flashing this one FlashInvader gives the message "NICE SHOT!". The sun was a bit shy during my visit to Cannes this morning.

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.
RTD_19 [10 points]
After the re-activation of this classic sized space invader in 2017 the building was renovated and the wall repainted. The re-activation of June 2020 was in close consultation with the artist of the mural and they allowed Invader (his re-activators) to put the space invader back in space where it was since 2001.

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. In June 2020 three space invaders were re-activated (RTD_01, 18, 22) which made it possible to have flashed almost all 26 space invaders of Rotterdam. Except for the hidden RTD_26 which will never be re-activated because it was located on a wall near the Centraal Station. The area is redevelopped and the wall isn't there anymore.

PA_038 [10 points]
There are beautiful things going on on the walls of Paris. Long gone space invaders are popping up again after years of absence. This PA_38 (or PA_038 or even PA_0038 as you wish) has been scraped off the wall in April 2007 but is back to life thanks to one of the (many) fans of space invaders and players of the game FlashInvaders.
