Yep, just decide to proxy the figs. You should not have much problem.As far as the monsters go, if you don't have the originals you can proxy them as well. Just let the adventurer players know the stat differences. You may have to go online to see the sizes of some of the monsters, like the Giant takes up 4 squares and the Hellhound is 3 in a row (I think).
I bought the 2nd edition and played the intro quest prior to getting the conversion kit and I'm glad I did. The group LOVED the game and can't wait for more. The conversion gives you so much more in the monster choices you won't have to repeat the same few over and over again.
