Think I'm sold on these skis, but was wondering if this years Magic J is any different from last years. All I can really tell is that the top sheet and bases are slightly different. Last years is $200 less so if the only major change is the graphic, then I'd probably grab last years.

From what i've seen there's no difference in the ski's besides the graphics. I would just get last years if i were you.

there's no change from last year. I rode the magic J's last and all i can say is you will have the season of your life on them.

The core was updated slightly for 13/14. Denser hardwood stringers under the binding mat paired with chopped glass for additional retention. Other than that, the ski is unchanged from last year.

Worth paying an extra $200 for?

Not unless you've had a lot of problems in the past with tear-outs.
