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.

You people are insane... I've found my Tribe!

McNeil didn't continue Jetfire into Cybertron. The producers reportedly wanted Jetfire to have a more 'Australian' voice instead of his usual, hence a new actor. Ironically, Scott McNeil was, in fact, born in Brisbane, Australia! Clearly, he was insufficiently Australian.

Notes

Megatron watches in horror as Scott plays with his arms.
  • Scott looks vastly different at each of his convention appearances. This page only scratches the surface of his myriad looks.
  • For the interview in Madman Entertainment's Beast Wars DVDs, Scott came dressed in a foam Megatron costume.
  • Scott auditioned for every role in Beast Wars. In particular, he was interested in playing Cheetor (who he almost got) and Quickstrike.
  • Scott always tears up everytime he hears Optimus Primal's eulogy for Dinobot in Code of Hero.
  • Scott says that the voice that became Waspinator's was the suggestion of Doug Parker's who was in charge of casting.
  • Scott's favourite episodes of Beast Wars are of course Code of Hero and surprisingly The Low Road.
  • Seriously, he's clinically insane.
