13 Lead Soldiers 1948 Written by Herman C McNeile and Irving Elman, directed by Frank McDonald. Part of the Bulldog Drummond series with Tom Conway playing Captain Hugh "Bulldog" Drummond.
A doctor is murdered and two lead soldiers are stolen. A friend of Hugh's says he's got a couple of those lead figures and he's had threats encouraging him to sell the figures. Hugh plants a newspaper story saying he's bought the figures from his pal. A man called Vane is trying to buy the figures. He steals the two figures Drummond has and Bulldog is on his trail.
I have enjoyed the series on average and this is about average for the lot. There's a fair bit of running about and a good body count. You can see it on YouTube.
