Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 70400  Name: Forest Ambush
* 
70400-1 (Inv) Forest Ambush
74 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 2013
Sets: Castle

* Add 4 Part 4085d Blue Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Clip Vertical - Type 4 (thick open O clip) (Alternate) (match ID 3)
* Change 4 Part Blue {4085d Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Clip Vertical - Type 4 (thick open O clip) to 4085b Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Clip Vertical - Type 2 (thin U clip)} {match ID 0 to 3}

Comments from Submitter:
My set has this variant, which coincides with other sets from 2013 that has it in blue. I have switched 4085d to be the alternate as it's the newer part.

Technically, the Help page dictates that the part which appears less frequently
is supposed to be the alternate:

However, I have approved your requests.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind although I couldn't possibly know what
variant of a certain brick is the most frequent one in a certain set. But I guess
if an inventory has been around for years and I find a new variant, my variant
is considered the "less frequent" one. Either that, or noone bored to change
the inventory before I did.
