    Kitchy eclectic alien shop I found on my way to HOOVER DAM the other day. Anytime I see a giant alien outside of a store I gotta pull over and investigate it's inhabitants. Upon entering you'll find basic alien & Star Wars memorabilia to get that inner Sci-Fi Freak on. Aside from that they sell Alien Agave Tequila in an alien shaped bottle. Can you really say no to a close encounter of the alcohol kind? I say not! I mean this could really send me on my way to mars and I really wanna be transported to another dimension. Well beam me up Scotty I had to have a bottle. The kind lady gave me a discount, bubble wrapped my bottle for safe travels home and took my money money with a smile. Can't wait to get comatose with the Alien Tequila for your store, you guys rule.

    Sci-Fi fans will get a kick out of this store. UFOs, spaceships, martians, aliens, its all here. They even got Star Wars toys and DVDs of your favorite Sci-Fi Movies. It kinda reminds me a little bit like the Zombie Apocolypse Store, but with martians, aliens and sci-fi stuff. Stop in to kill some time and get some quick laughs, but if you're a die hard fan, you my just purchase a remote control saucer, alien shades, or even your own alien water bottle...ALOHA!!!

    Cool place to check out when in Boulder City! Can't miss it as you stroll around..Ask about Area 52! Yes, 52! We have Aliens living under the Hoover Dam!

    Welcome to the Flying Saucer!

    I've been wanting to check this place out ever since I first heard about it. A store all about aliens? And it had a giant extraterrestrial outside? Sign me up! It's a smaller store, but filled with everything alien-related you could possibly imagine and then some. There are lots of really interesting books, some of which are a bit retro and fun to flip through. If there was ever a DVD that had an alien in it, you can bet it's at The Flying Saucer. They also have DVDs of The Twilight Zone and X-Files, Star Wars toys, as well as alien-themed key chains, t-shirts, guitars, and marionettes. Basically, it's your one-stop alien shop. Lots of fun to visit when you are in Boulder City.

    Great souvenir shop if you are looking for most anything alien. They also had Star Wars items. Visited with the lady running the shop and as he told us, a fun store with lots of fun stuff. They also have alien beer and alien tequila.

    All the fun of sci fi and aliens without the crazy Tom cruise cult or cyanide punch. Stopped by this place while enjoying a weekend up in boulder , was kinda iffy due to the fact that some people go off the walls with alien/ sci fi stuff. However the lady that worked there was pretty down to Earth (pun intended). She was very helpful and friendly we talked a little about area 51, other phenomenon like the mothman and other cryptids. She recommended some great books written on unexplained and paranormal phenomenon which make for an entertaining read regardless of if you believe it as fact or not. The shop offers lots of odd and alien themed gifts and gadgets for the UFO enthusiast. They had alien sunglasses, inflatable UFO's even alien beer.. (sorry no probes. but i'm sure a few shops in vegas have those ;P). All in all it's a neat little shop to stop into to grab some cool stuff.

We see it all over this special place . Let's go in shall we! This little shop a bit of all sorts of things! The store is a mix of all things truly cool! Well made souvenirs. The things here will be great decades to remember too. Those moments that you look back on. The store is just cool too. An Indian is outside the door to greet all. They even want you to come in and browse . The selection here is truly overwhelming. Is anxiety setting in? Perhaps, perfect! Let's get our shop on . They have it all . From butterflies, crucifixes, to a stone turtle in the background to place . The staff here are genuinely happy and proud of their accomplishments of how they set the store up. It's truly too cool . Come and see. Stay and buy of course !

As a member of the community, I don't just send out-of-towners here--I shop here regularly myself!It is the ultimate destination for finding items for those hard-to-shop-for people on your list. Personally, I absolutely love browsing through their incredible, curated collection of vintage Las Vegas and Arizona postcards and unique tchotchkes. What truly elevates this store, though, is the family behind it. Anjelica and her sweet mother--who originally founded the shop alongside her late husband--are incredibly welcoming, kind, and genuinely friendly. Shopping here is such a warm, comfortable experience that it feels less like running an errand and more like visiting old friends. I always leave with a smile, a great find, and the feeling that I could just pull up a chair and hang out all afternoon!

    Fantastic experience…read more The 2 ladies behind the counter were super friendly. I found some cute stuffed animals here for my collection and some hand made soaps and some delicious smelling candles that they warned me not to eat :) hehe There is a ton to see here, rows and rows of goodies. Prices seemed reasonable but its an antique market... Will probably go back in October on next vacation. :) I am sorry I didn't get the 2 ladies names but they were fantastic.

Did you remember what used to be? This is the type of place that you can relive and remember when. The whole reason for choosing this antique over others is the amazing design of the outdoors. In fact as we walked down the avenue of where the store was located the employee fixing an outdoor display was warm and welcoming . She was wearing her Halloween costume and was dressed so cute . So do you get the whole theme it was just perfect. Here we go let's go! Everything is so organized. It's truly a sight to behold that this is a store and not someone's home . At each turn everything is so organized and orderly. It seems more personalized and organized in all aspects. As you browse each and every aisle you see pictures of the past. The most interesting of all is how it's displayed. I cannot get over how much time has been devoted to this project. It makes seeking out something for your own more interesting and exciting. The best and greatest of all things that are possible can be achieved and found in the past . Open your heart and mind to remembering the past and come and experience something new and special.
