Dumb Art Question - What is this thing called?

Okay, call me a dummy, but I've been Googling for this for a couple minutes and I cannot find the term I'm looking for!

It's an object sold in art stores. It looks kind of like a tiny mannequin, but doesn't have a face. It's usually made out of wood and metal. The special thing about it is that you can pose it like a skeleton; all the joints move the way real joints move, probably held in place with a small metal piece you can screw and unscrew.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I can't even find any pictures of the dang things...

I tried searching in various combinations/phrases with the following words: model, figure, dummy, posing, "art supplies" ...

Help!
