Hi. You might try Berliner Zinnfiguren or the Little Tin Soldier I remember the set. Good luck on finding them. Willie

Not familiar with the set but, I believe there are 30 of the 43 figures on EBay UK now.

Hi These figures look like metal versions of some that I have on the French Kings in white plastic, which I believe were produced by Starlux?? and  very occasionally pop up on French E Bay

I have about half a dozen, if they are of interest to you. They are in a box somewhere, shouldn't be too hard to find.

Hi Steve
Most of the Gottstein moulds are now owned by Leipzig zinnfiguren freunde
You should get in touch with them : www.zinnfigurenfreunde-leipzig.de

Thank you all for your help. Charles, I am interested in learning more about the figures you mentioned in your post, and thanks for the pointer to Glorious Empires. I have tried contacting the Leipzig organization, but cannot get anyone to reply. I will try again.
Best regards,
Steve

It looks like the Leipzig Figure Collectors have been busy and this set is offered sale on Berliner Zinnfiguren again.
