A 4m (13ft) high replica statue in the front yard of a suburban Melbourne, Australia home has residents averting their eyes.

One mom complained that she can't avoid seeing the statue 'from the knees up' from anywhere in her house. Another said he wouldn't mind 'if it was smaller'. Traffic is also slowing down to take a look and other neighbors are concerned it will attract vandals.

Local authorities say no building permits are required for statues and they've only received two complaints. The owners of the statue did not respond to media requests for comments.

*I wonder if it is meant to look so much like a 70s rock star who's stepped on stage and realized he forgot his flares?
