I've seen sets like that on Ebay.

I have a catalog from Petra Toys.  The date on it is 2001 so they might 
still be around.  The set that you describe is in it.  Here is their contact 
information (I couldn't find a website):
Petra Toys, Inc
1026 West Elizabeth Ave
Linden, NJ 07036   USA

Phone: 908-862-3277
Fax: 908-862-7337
petratoys-AT-worldnet.att.net

Good Luck - let me know if you find them!

Greetings:

I was wondering if anyone might know where I could buy little "Czech-type"
marionettes.  They are about six inches in height.  The control is a white
plastic rod that comes out of the head and manipulates the arms with a
string.  In an old catalog from "The Puppet Store", they are sold in a set
of 12 that includes grandmother, little girl, little boy, witch, jester,
water sprite, mother, devil, queen, king, princess and father.  There is
also a little marionette toy theater that is designed for them.

Thanks for your help,

Terri
