Same as everything, I presume. You can't just edit the sprite of mario and say "Free for commercial use". There's some kind of plead of ignorance in these situations but I think it depends on how famous the source material is. I know a friend got hit real hard for using a sample from a samplepack that they legally bought, because the sample was illegally taken from a song without permission.
