I think Litko acrylic markers and tokens are fantastic. Great quality. They are also not cheap. What alternate vendors or techniques do you use to acquire or make high presentation value tokens? I'm looking for common, generic ones such as ammo, out of ammo, pinned, overwatch, and similar varieties. I'm not interested in anything paper.

I'm currently thinking about using the generic round acrylic chits which are sold in bulk and in various colors and sizes on Amazon for cheap. Then printing the markers on iron-on sheets and applying them to the chits. It looks to be time consuming , not as nice as the Litko products, and in the end, not saving much cash unless my time is worthless and I create probably way more than I need.

Bingo Covers which are likely the acrylic chits you are describing.
