The next step in the new line of 2.5D Ugears puzzles , the Classic Vehicles collection, is the Zeppelin, the world's first commercial airplane! Inspired by early 20th century German airships and named after German inventor Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, this DIY 2.5D wooden airship model features moving parts and comes in its own frame , allowing it to be hung on the wall or placed on a desk or shelf. Halfway between a 2D image and a 3D model, the Ugears Zeppelin 2.5D model offers 3 perspectives (side view, enlarged cabin view, front view) and has several moving parts, including propellers, a rudder and stabilizers, to bring your puzzle to life!

The first zeppelins had a long cylindrical body made of fabric stretched over a rigid metal frame. Inside, large gas bags ensured the buoyancy of the device. Reversible thrust engines, propellers and complex external fins provided propulsion, maneuverability and stability. In 1929, the Graf Zeppelin dirigible circumnavigated the globe in 21 days. Besides passenger air transport, zeppelins were used as fighters in World War I and for scientific research in peacetime. The Hindenburg disaster on May 6, 1937 ended the era of passenger airships but modern zeppelins, filled with helium instead of combustible hydrogen, continue to be used primarily for sightseeing,
