If you thought Hoth was cold, you need to check out this "Star Wars" snow sculpture.

Members of the Japanese military constructed a giant "Star Wars" snow sculpture for the Sapporo Snow Festival, running from February 5-11. The sculpture features Darth Vader, stormtroopers, and TIE fighters.

The "Star Wars" snow monument is among 200 sculptures at the festival.
