I've got a sealed box, and instead of the listed items in dark bluish gray, all were in dark gray.

What is the copyright date on your box?

Minifig No: col271  Name: Collectible Minifigure
* 
col271 Collectible Minifigure
Minifigures: Collectible Minifigures
Marked for Deletion

* Delete 1 Part 973px126c01 White Torso Paradisa Windsurf Board with Sunset Pattern / Yellow Arms / Yellow Hands
* Add 1 Part 973px126newc01 White Torso Paradisa Windsurf Board with Sunset Pattern, Inside with Ribs (Reissue) / Yellow Arms / Yellow Hands

May I ask what the difference is on this 'Inside with ribs' torsos compared
to the same torsos that are 10 years old?

The original torsos first appeared in 1994, so those are ~23 years old. The torsos
back then had short ribs inside the torso (like a jumper with bottom stud holder)
instead of the long ribs that appeared around 1998 and continue into today. Therefore,
there would be no difference between a modern torso and one 10 years ago, but
there would be a difference between a modern torso and the original version of
this torso. I believe this helps to set up a nice precedent to get more modern
torsos with classic prints into the catalog, so that vintage minifigs and modern
minifigs both have the proper torso mold for the time period they were released.

Cheers,
Randy

  It ain't clear on the images (no comparison image between 'old' version
and 're-issue':

973px126newc01 (Inv) Torso Paradisa Sailboat with Sunset Pattern, Inside with Ribs (Reissue) / Yellow Arms / Yellow Hands

And here is a nice place to read up about those changes in the torso and more.

Have a nice day.

I was surprised to see these torso variations make in into the catalog. Before
these are added to inventories, a close look needs to be taken at the complexities
of the early torso, meaning that there are both no ribs and short ribs, and 3
different kinds of hands, all in the space of the earliest few years (1978-1983).

This is a far cry from the minifig head situation, which has three distinct eras,
each of which is large enough to make a complete transition from one type to
the other. And the head is of singular importance in Lego, and IMO is worthy
of special treatment.

Set No: 21303  Name: WALL-E
* 
21303-1 (Inv) WALL-E
677 Parts, 2015
Sets: LEGO Ideas (CUUSOO): WALL-E

* Change 1 Part Black 3023 Plate 1 x 2 {match ID 1 to 0}

Comments from Submitter:
Please see following post.

If the DBG plates are handled as recommended in my previous post on this inventory,
the removal of the Match ID from the black 1 x 2 plate line should solve the
problem entirely.

After studying what went wrong here:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1035201

I knew there had to be another mistake, because I had lined up the piece counts
for the two versions and they matched:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1033493

So, the root of the problem - a Black plate 1 x 2 was removed instead of a DBG
plate. Easy mistake to make with the colors as printed in the instructions. But
all four versions of instructions show the plate in Black being added on p. 75
(or p. 79 for the 3-language version). It is the same color as the lever, and
that only comes in black in this set.

Below is a revised version of the spreadsheet with the corrected lines in red:
