"At a time when politics and ethnic ideology have occupied and poisoned everyday life, we want to show that there are true values that have nothing to do with politics," the Mostar association earlier said of the initiative.
"It would also be a reminder of our childhood dreams of a just world where crude physical force does not matter, but skill, speed and the will to fight for justice does."

Rock on!
Of course, I saw a statue of a kung-fu fighting Utahraptor while on vacation last week in the illustrious name-state of said large lizard, and I nominate that as an idea for any other town looking for something excellently cool to erect in the town square.
I'm a fan of wacky statues like that. I bet kids love the Utahraptor.
