I want to create a character as similar to Nathan Wallace in his guise as the Repo Man as possible. How would you suggest going about it?

I was thinking about a Monk, with maybe the Ninja Spy PRE because he did most of the killing with his bare hands or scalpels. Splash some Rogue for getting in and out of places victims don't want him to be (such as their panic rooms).

You'll have to wait for the enhancement pass, if the early descriptions of the pass are correct where human characters can access any PrE.

See, Nathan Wallace would be, as a base class, a healer. However his prestige would either be assassin or frenzied berserker. The closest I could think of would be 12 Cleric/6 barb/2 fighter, strength based, with the assassin prestige. Stat makeup...he'd have to be a 34pt build, at least.

Str: 16
Dex: 15
Con: 14
Int: 15
Wis: 9
Cha: 10

With 32 points, drop charisma to 8. Use kukris and daggers as "scalpels." The high INT gives good UMD, concentration, balance, jump as skills, and drives a reasonable assassinate DC. Alignment would be chaotic neutral. Start with all 12 cleric levels, take a level of fighter, 6 barb, second fighter level. Without knowing how the enhancement pass would effect feat requirements, I can't speculate on that, but you'd need TWF feats at the very least (I'm replaying the movie in my head...).

Right now, Wallace can't be built, though. He's far too complex. ;)

Well he certainly wasn't Giles. ;)

As an aside, it's a criminal shame that Anthony Stewart Head hasn't done more singing. He has the pipes to have been a New Wave of British Heavy Metal vanguarder.

He has an album out. If you like mellow laid back music (like me) it's very good. :) I have of course forgotten the name of it and am not home to check. LOL
