Some Scouts were painted to best camouflage with their environment. A number of Cybermen that patrolled the [[London Underground]] were painted black, making them nearly invisible in the dark tunnels.

A [[Cyber-Scout (The Dead Heart)|Cyber-Scout]] was sent in a [[Cyber-Scout craft (The Dead Heart)|Cyber-Scout craft]] on a mission to find the [[Lizard King]]s. Crashing in a [[jungle]], the [[scout]] encountered a [[village]] of [[human]] [[Mondasian]]s, who believed it to be a [[servant]] of the [[god]]s.

Manning a [[Cyber-Scout craft (The Prodigal Returns)|Cyber-Scout craft]], a [[Cyber-Scout (The Prodigal Returns)|Cyber-Scout]] was sent on a mission to travel through a [[cosmic cloud]] that appeared the same time an [[Ape-servant (The Prodigal Returns)|ape]] had arrived, to find the [[ape]]'s [[home planet]] and convert their [[species]]. The Cyberman came through the cloud and was fired at by missiles by the [[Lizard King]]s on Mondas, in an era before Mondas broke away from [[Earth]]. The missiles missed the Cyber-Scout craft, but the recoil injured it and damaged its [[voicebox]]. Noticing the Cyberman's technology was not unlike their own, the Lizard Kings decided to study the Cyber-Scout through [[vivisection]] and sent an ape-servant into the cloud to its world. The ape-servant inside the craft was the same ape that inspired the Cybermen to send the Cyber-Scout through the cosmic cloud in Mondas' future.
