So they skipped the Dalek phase, huh?
Wheeled robots have been the norm for decades, we didn't skip that.
Didn’t Daleks have little squishy aliens inside them?
Yes, Daleks are not robots, they're squishy tentacle space nazis inside mobile battle casing pepperpots that they call War Machines. The Terminator T1 however looks vaguely like such a pepperpot if you squint and are Doctor Who brained.
