The force is strong in Odessa, Ukraine.

A statue of communist leader Vladimir Lenin has been transformed into a monument to “Star Wars” icon Darth Vader by sculptor Alexander Milov.

The shrine is a result of Ukraine’s recently passed bill banning communist propaganda in the country’s monuments and street names. While most communist relics will be removed or destroyed, this particular Lenin statue has been repurposed.

“The bronze Lenin was left inside, so that the grateful or not-so-grateful descendants could exhume him, if needed,” Milov is quoted as saying by Ukraine Today.

Local website Dumskaya shared photos of the newly erected art piece, which now sports black paint and a WiFi-emitting Vader helmet. Fans dressed as storm troopers and Vader attended the monument’s opening ceremony on Friday.
