Alternate universe ads

A power company here has been running a series of ads in their "same power, different attitude" campaign in which despots, pols and generally bad people are depicted as AU versions of themselves in a better, kinder world.

The first one I saw was a peacenik Nixon with afro on the local bus stop, and I have to say it worked: I was intrigued as I drive by, enough to find out who the company was. Over this year they've also done:

• Kim Il Jong (now of overtly lamented memory) doing a fund-raising sausage sizzle for a school
  
• Saddam Hussein collecting for refugees
  
• Rupert Murdoch (I think) as a gentle Hindu
  
• Richard Nixon giving the peace sign (I couldn't find one online with the ad copy)

And this one which made me laugh out loud with delight when I saw it.

Of course they've been told to cease and desist by Lucasfilm. Pity. Do they know about this rather similar free postcard from Europe though?
