I seen one today at my local gun store. A little pricey compared to WSS, they wanted $130 compared to $99. WSS doesn`t have any and we all know how long that takes if they have to order.
Anyhow, to my question: The decoy takes batteries and can be a "stand alone product" OR "used in conjunction with a Foxpro caller". If used with the caller, does the decoy still need the batteries or does it run off the battery life of the caller? Thanks,Darcy
 
I never use the Jack attack plugged into the Foxpro...but I think you would still need the 4 AA's to run it. I have the Jack in the box as well and you need 4 Cs to run it with the caller. The caller itself is a battery nightmare-best to pick up some hi amp (2450 mAh) Energizer or Duracell rechargeables.

I got my Jack Attack on sale for $50. I would keep looking for a sale.
 
I've had 12 coyotes this winter come in and aim on my Mojo Critter. Not to take away from the Fox pro decoy but I would not add to a unit that would use the same batteries. These things are not easy on batteries and the added decoy would only drain it more.

I have got my money from the Mojo X2 over
 
The black jack doesn't run off a foxpro, takes its own 4 AA batteries. I have used the same 4 AA batteries all winter long. I bet close to 50 hours of use on them. Anywhere from -20 to +10 degrees. I even leave it in my truck over night and it still wont kill them batteries.

(batteries will die mid run next time i go out now, thx btw :D)

Had a couple coyotes just about run it over, I like that it comes apart in 3 peices. I can pack it up in my pack under my foxpro and it takes next to no room. I have enough #### to carry into a stand LOL
 
I like the Mojo-simple and wild action. Saw these for $50 bucks as well recently. If you can't find them for that price, send me a PM.

The Jack Attack is nice in that it has a remote on/off and two speeds. It darts around pretty crazy with the woodpecker attachment. All in all, either one will do its' job but I wouldn't pay more than $50 for either.
 
I paid $49.95 + tax for the Jack Attack but realize it usually sells for $100+. I have seen the Mojo for $50 at Grech in Mount Forest recently. The Jack Attack has since gone up at LH Rod & Gun to $109...maybe I got it as a introductory price???

I like the Jack Attack, but for for a difference of $50, wouldn't hesitate to buy the Mojo.

The Black Jack...hmmm, looks like the Jack Attack without the remote or the woodpecker attachment. The critter is super light (vs. the oaff of a raccoon creature on the Jack in the Box) and makes quite the fuss in the wind. A buddy has the Mojo, and to tell the truth, I like that unit better than the Foxpro stuff. It's critter is a spider with legs that captivates me....most probably more than Wil E. Coyote!
 
Just noticed: At Cabelas, the "black jack" and the "jack attack" are the same except that the jack attack has the woodpecker decoy and a remote which I wouldn`t need. The black jack just has the jackrabbit. The black jack is $60!! Now, Cabelas grand opening is sometime this spring and is 3 hours away. I`ll have to see if I know anyone going there when it opens. Same as the Mojo Critter, no one has one, would have to wait for Cabelas.
