Heh - a Firdos Square (the infamous Saddam statue in Baghdad in 2003) style toppling would be pretty spectacular. Destructive, but spectacular. Maybe in an expy for the White House being shelled by tanks of the 2nd Guards Motor Rifle Division in a TL where the fall was bloodier...
This would be practically impossible to topple this statue in the traditional way of toppling: because of Lenin's pointing arm the statue would be armor-clad and bounded with the stylobate pretty damn well in order to withstand wind pressure. And don't forget this statue was meant to contain smaller rooms and offices.
It was not meant to be a 'statue', it actuially was meant to be an 'office building' in a form of statue.
