Well, I mean, he doesn't own those characters, so legally, he shouldn't be monetizing content with property he doesn't own. I certainly wouldn't try monetizing my Moron League shorts - I don't own those characters either, so I could get in trouble for that - all I can do is claim fair use because those shorts are parodies, which are supposed to be protected by fair use. Still, because they use copyrighted characters (figurines of copyrighted characters, but still copyrighted characters nonetheless), making a profit off of them would be copyright infringement.
