I don't imagine there would be a problem scanning and reprinting old counters for home use only. Just don't share them online anywhere, as that would definitely be an infringement. There's regularly originals on sale at e-bay, but they have gotten very pricey -- just saw a 1st edition Wizard going for $80 tonight.

[Disclaimer: I ain't no lawyer! That wasn't legal advice! Don't listen to me! Prank post, prank post!]

Actually might do that myself at some point. Except for the Pocket Box versions, the new 1 inch LE counters are too big to work with all my decades' worth of homemade maps and play-aides! Everything I ever made was to the 7/8 inch hex scale used in original Melee and Wizard.

And these gigantic 1.5 inch hexes?!? My 3-hex Balrog counter would look like a puny little 1-hex Balrog if I put him on these new hexes!

Actually that might be cute :)
