We might also add "aspirational" play to the list. While it's less actively a true "play" pattern, it is part of the equation, and Hasbro reps have often used it in the same breath as the more traditional play-patterns. For clarification, in case it's needed, Hasbro seems to define "aspirational play" as something like "Child recognizes the alt-mode as a Porsche, and desires to own/play-with the toy as a surrogate for owning an ACTUAL Porsche, which may be a pre-existing aspirational-fantasy/desire" I'd just go ahead and add it, but it feels like an edge case, so I defer to the wisdom of the elders. --Destrongerlupus 14:28, 25 April 2013 (EDT)
