Had a reservation for a caravan, got a GMC Arcadia. Pretty sure I have transported other pins in this, but never a JJP.

Is the hobbit considerably bigger then W/B or Stern game. I know its a wide body and it's heavy. More concerned with it fitting folded up..

Thanks. Leaving in the morning and would rather not drive a few hours for it not to fit.

Not sure if it will fit or not - but it is very very heavy.

If you can fit a normal pin you should be fine, only a few inches wider on the body, (head is the same)

and it's gotta weight about the same as STTNG. It's a beast. Mainly because there are SO MANY coils in the game (2 for every drop targets).

...and also, JJP uses REAL plywood. Not cardboard.

Thanks guys! I think Hobbit weighs 350 lbs.

STTNG felt pretty close to that.

You want to feel heavy, try moving my Star Race or Circus! Never actually weighed them but I'd venture they are between 450-500lbs each!

No I don't. Still nursing my hernia caused by my Hobbit.
