The name or term "Scott" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Scott (disambiguation).
Scott receives a pair of Wolverine sandals at OTFCC 2004. The insanity of the gift is only matched by the insanity of the recipient.

Scott McNeil (born September 15, 1962) is an Australian-born Canadian voice actor. Some of his most notable roles include Bonesteel from Saban Entertainment's Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation, Cobra Commander from G.I. Joe: Sgt. Savage and his Screaming Eagles, Wolverine from X-Men: Evolution, Voltar from League of Super Evil, Ace the Bat-Hound from Krypto the Superdog, Ken Masters from the Street Fighter animated series, Proto Man and Dr. Wily from the Ruby-Spears Mega Man series, and oh so many more.

In the world of dubbing, McNeil has played such characters as Piccolo from the original English dub of Dragon Ball Z, Hohenheim of Light from Fullmetal Alchemist, Dr. Wily again for the Mega Man: Upon a Star OVAs, Duo Maxwell from Gundam Wing (a voice that sounds almost identical to Rattrap's), and Koga from InuYasha.

He is an extremely prolific performer, an incredibly popular guest at Transformers and anime conventions, and is probably certifiably insane.
