Sadly this statue doesn't exist anymore but his legacy still lives on.
i like the Seattle statue of Lenin that people always vandalize with red paint. It's on private land so it cant be removed and the irony is delicious

Red paint? Is that even vandalism in this situation lol.
they paint his hands to imply he has bloody hands
i choose to believe it's the communism seeping out 
It's the blood of the Tsar
My first thought was Hellboy, and now I can totally imagine Lenin cast as a PG-13/Soft-R comedy superhero.
Maybe he can do a bit where he pulls a machete and says something about "you should see the cutlery my friend Joe keeps around."
I wonder what will happen to me if I paint the hands of any American "heroes"?
they will put you under the prison 
Nelson Mandela statue in Ramallah
Fidel Castro statue in Bloemfontein
I'm fond of this Lenin in Kazan
