I am not a lawyer.
That said, I can't imagine that it would be a good thing to either directly
scan TLC classic Castle designs and put them on the sheet, put things that are
simple color mods of TLC designs on the sheet, or take existing TLC images
(like the Racers tiger-head design) and put them on Castle-y things and then
sell it.
On the other hand, making and selling stickers with original images in the
shape of LEGO minifig torsos, shields, and "dress" bricks shouldn't be any kind
of problem.
