Egg figurines, what is it called?

Doen anyone know the name of a collectible figurines(s) that resembles an "egg family", but are painted with human features. One is big and opens to reveal a smaller size, then it opens to reveal even a smaller one. Until finally they can go no smaller. I am hunting for the these on ebay but without knowing a definite name is making is difficult. Thanks!

    A matryoshka doll, a Babushka doll or a Russian nested doll, also called a stacking doll.
