I am confused. Didn't the Daleks just try to destroy the universe two years ago? And they absolutely refused to ally with the Cybermen four years ago? If the Doctor was actually going to destroy the universe, why would only the Doctor's enemies try to stop him? Not to mention how all those races got access to time travel.
I think it's a trick. All those aliens were fakes, just like the Romans. Whoever hijacked the TARDIS is also responsible for the duplicants. He/she/it used them to distract the Doctor and get him locked into the Pandorica.
EDIT: I just remembered what the Nestene Consciousness is, which makes my theory less likely. My questions still stand, though.
EDIT:
1) Yes, the Daleks did try to destroy the omniverse 2 years ago, but they also had a plan to survive it and be the only living things in existence afterwards. In this instance, due to the cracks in time, all points in space and history are being destroyed simoutaneously, which even the Daleks can't survive. Their only hope is to prevent the disaster from occuring so they too aren't wiped out.
2) Yes they refused to ally with the Cybermen 4 years ago, but back then they didn't need to ally with them, being outnumbered as they were 4 Daleks to 5 milion Cybermen (that's the Cybermen being outnumbered of course, not the Daleks). You can also argue, new Daleks, new set of priorities/tactics.
3) Do we even know of any good aliens in the Whoniverse? Seriously I can't even think of 1 species that's consistantly portrayed as "good". Even the Shadow Proclamation are only really neutral and concerned with maintaining order in the universe and well, they use the Judoon, who were there as well. Generally speaking all the evil races are far more technologically advanced and willing to do whatever is neccesary to stop the Doctor, who they all also hate equally and so would provide good motivation for them to combine forces against.
4) They all got time travel because the universe is unravelling at the seams. Those cracks allowed those vampires a few episodes back to cross over to Earth, and allowed Cybermen from another dimension to cross over. Pretty much any race can now cross over to wherever the plot demands because of those cracks in time. Or failing that, the Daleks sought them all out and loaned them some tech.
5) Nah, pretty sure all the races are real, it's just the soldiers who are Nestene controlled. But yeah, I agree they've all just been tricked into allying against the Doctor and trapping him because they think he's gona destroy the universe, orchastrated by whoever has hacked the TARDIS, in order to keep the Doctor away while he uses the TARDIS to destroy the Omniverse. The orchastrater is also Davros, based on the voice we heard.
