    Had the pleasure of checking out Bell Plastic's open house, and it was such a joy! I wasn't sure what to expect, but it turned out to be a really great time. Everyone who works at Bell Plastic is incredibly nice and very enthusiastic talking about what they do! I love the passion!! The family and I were able to tour the place, saw their amazing Pez collection, learned some history about that, saw their plastics machines, their laser cutters, cnc machines, just so much informative things. Bell Plastics even supplied us with hot dogs, cakes, sodas, and chips! Such a great open house, hope to come back next year and see what else they added to their collection of giant figures!! Thanks Bell Plastics for hosting us!!

    Giant iconic Muffler Men? What a treat for Bell Plastics to open its gates to the public for its free annual one day open house so visitors can get nostalgic by visiting the fiberglass statutes of the past. Muffler men were roadside landmarks and advertisers that were cultural figures popular in the '60s and '70s. Since then many have faded away, but the owner of Bell Plastics has been collecting and restoring these sculptures with his first purchase being Big Mike from Morris Car Wash in Hayward. They repair the broken fiberglass on each sculpture and repaint them back to their glory year's appearance. They have two Doggie Diner sculptures, one that I remember from my childhood. Other sculptures on display include a Paul Bunyan lumberjack, Uniroyal Gal, a green octopus from a car wash, the character from MAD, mardi gras head, a firemen, santa, the pepper from Chili's and Boy's Big Boy. They also had workers that showed how they produce custom plastics and polishing techniques and also stamped plastic molds for the guests. What a great fun experience! It was nostalgic and thanks to Bell Plastics and its friendly staff for opening its gates for us to experience.

    The annual open house event on 8-18-2019 was fantastic. I learn how molds are made, and the people were welcoming. They explained a lot what they do. In addition, the exhibit of the figures was exactly what I needed to feel inspired

    What a great event Bell Plastics had today with the Celebration of "Big Mikes" 50th Birthday. Great community event and I got to check out their facilities, their actual production process plus the types of products they manufacture. Great to see a local business that reaches out to its community to engage them, and shares the locals love of historical icons like the Mike and Doggie Diner sculptures (just to name a few, wow they could seriously open a museum!) All the team there at Bell were also very nice and obviously love what they do. Thanks again for a great day and I will definitely send people their way for plastic fabrication and custom artistry.

    I work near Bell Plastics. I often will just drive by on my way home to see the Giants out front. It always makes me happy to see the Giant characters that hang out there. They have an annual open house for Big Mikes birthday. I've been for the past 3 years. It gets bigger and better each year. Love the classic cars too! Next one is August 16, 2020! It's a great low key event showing off the large folks who live there and what the company can do too! Demos for the various things they can do! My favorite Giant is Santa Claus!!

    Toward the back they have a vacuum form demo and a "big mike" keepsake you can take home from the demo.
