A Dalek is some kind of creature or object from Skaro that an unknown Doctor might be very concerned about. Some Transformers have a Dalek-form as an alternate mode. They are somehow associated with the word "exterminate".

- Lee Sullivan has stated that Octus was supposed to transform into a Dalek. Sullivan is well known to Who fans for drawing Dalek strips for Doctor Who Magazine.
- A "Mark III Travel Machine" is a name the 1975 serial [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Genesis of the Daleks|{{#if:||Genesis of the Daleks}}]] retroactively gave to the metal exoskeletons Daleks ride around in. The mad scientist [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Davros|{{#if:||Davros}}]] invented them to give the mobility to the race he bioengineered to be the superior form of his native Kaleds.
