Black torso with a light bluish gray vest over a black hoodie. Detailed printing includes a white logo on the chest, pockets, and a 'nametag' patch on the vest lower-left.

Character Background
Scott is a civilian character in Newbury who works at the local scrapyard. He often gets caught up in the supernatural hauntings of the town and can become possessed in the AR game play.
Design Notes
The hood/hat combo is a dual-molded piece that was specifically pushed during the Hidden Side era to give characters a 'streetwear' urban aesthetic.
Similar Minifigures
El Fuego (hs011), Jack Davids (hs001), and various other Newbury civilians like Douglas Elton.
Collectibility
Moderate. Collectors of the Hidden Side theme appreciate him for the unique hood element and the theme's short-lived, cult-classic status.
History
Hidden Side was LEGO's major push into 'Phygital' play. Scott represents the 'Newbury citizen' archetype that populated the line's early sets.
Interesting Facts
The printing on his vest is intended to look like a scrapyard worker's uniform, grounding the supernatural theme in a realistic setting.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in a graveyard or industrial MOC, or alongside the Ghost Train Express (70424) to show the 'haunting' mechanics.
Modification Potential
Excellent for post-apocalyptic or Cyberpunk MOCs due to the detailed industrial leg printing and the hood element.
Overall Assessment
A solid, well-detailed figure from a creative but defunct theme. Great for parts or for completing a Hidden Side character collection.
