How about new motors?

Another thing was the light sensor. Remember the ballot thingie at Kick-Off. I mean nothing was color sensitive or small enough to make any sense for it to use.

The torque motors was donated to FIRST. That's why they were in the kit. As far as the optical sensor goes, we were going to use it (actually had it hooked up and all) to automate part of our robot function but it ended up that we really didn't want it (we needed to time delay it). So the sensor had a use and probably will in the future. However, it will not be used by most teams.
