New additions to the Pink Elephant Antique Mall include a giant 45th President of the USA, and a guy wearing big boots and sunglasses sitting on the ground. I'm not quite sure what the sitting guy is doing... not judging, just wondering.

The Futuro UFO House at the Pink Elephant Mall in Livingston is in pretty bad shape. Broken windows, rotten plywood, and rusty beams = less-than-stellar appearance. "Keep Out" signs will deter the human element, but not the harsh Midwest elements of nature. Let's hope it soon finds a permanent spot as a restored home for a retro-loving mid century atomic-age preservationist.
[Mike Gassmann, 11/09/2019]Eat your ice cream and gaze upon Roadside giants. A Futuro flying saucer house, Muffler Man, pink elephant, Uniroyal Gal waitress, and a big beach dude statue.

Great stop! Harley guy is a ways out, past the pink elephant and giant tricycle. They also have Alvin & the Chipmunks, Santa, UFO house, waitress, and summer dude holding a cone. What better way to celebrate these great feats of fiberglass than to eat ice cream made inside a ice cream cone?!
[Gretchen, 07/27/2017]Everything still there, plus a giant tricycle has been added. The large beach man now has an ice cream cone in his hand.
[Chelsea, 07/03/2013]He stands close to a soft serve sugar cone-shaped building, so his vice is understandable.

The guy's hands were apparently designed to hold something skinny. A rifle? A fishing rod?
