McNeil is one of the most popular figures among the voice acting fandom for his general friendliness, exuberance, and tendency to speak as one of his many characters at the request of his fans (for example; singing the song "I'm a Cucumber" from the Brak Show in his Piccolo (Dragon Ball) voice (Piccolo is a green alien)). He appears at many anime conventions, and occasionally gathers an entourage so large as to obscure hall traffic. When he and other convention guests sit down for autograph sessions, there is usually a "Scott Line" and "Everyone Else Line" for the sake of convenience.
His nearly-permanent attire is a cowboy hat, jeans, and a flannel shirt, with varying styles of head and facial hair.
Trivia
Scott is an avid scuba diver, thoroughly exploring the aquatic realm in the Pacific Northwest. According to friends, he makes up incredible voices for the various fish and other marine life.Scott McNeil has, on at least one occasion, passed out while voice acting on Dragon Ball Z.
He also had great disdain for the Admiral of the Artemis Space Fortress in Gundam Seed and has been alleged to nickname the character "Admiral Fat guy".
Has been known to show up at conventions unannounced, much to the dismay of the staff.
He tends to take a lot of time to talk to his fans during autograph sessions, causing the wait time to increase dramatically.
Tokusatsu fans recognize Scott's face as Bone Steel from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- The Next Mutation; the reason for this is because the series had a team up with the Astro Rangers and much of those watching TMNT:NM were PR Fans.
