The choices I included for Robot week were the cream of the crop in my opinion that couldnt fall into the themes of other established theme weeks this year.
As Matt and I were working through this list, and had thought to do a robot week, we quickly realized that many of the suggestions were cyborgs. Enough of them infact that we have a week set aside as CYBORG Week later as well. Previously obvious robot choices, like RoboCop and Borgs from Star Trek, were quickly thrown out the window for Robot week.
Then we sat back and realized we were having a ridiculous conversation.....
On my list of character suggestions was Arnold Schwarzenegger. Just that... Arnold Schwarzenegger.
That's when we thought to use him specifically in his role as the T-800 from Terminator movies. That meant for this sketch to be faithful to my sketch list, and be an obvious participant in Robot week I had to find a way to include both forms of the terminator on one page without him looking like a cyborg (see previous ridiculous paragraph) Therefore, here you go! This took just a little bit more than an hour. I learned a lot from doing this sketch.

Great take on the T-800! And thanks for posting your actual ramblings about theme weeks, Very Entertaining! Looking forward to seeing who else shows up for Robot Week! Maybe an Astromech and Protocol Droid...?
