PILOTED VEHICLES A friendly character adjacent to a vehicle in
Piloted mode can be given a free action to become the vehicle's pilot. A pilot must have the (fist) or (sharpshooter) symbol printed
on their base, must be the same size as the vehicle or smaller,
can’t use Battle Fury, and must have begun the game friendly
to the vehicle’s force. A vehicle in Piloted mode may only
have one pilot at a time. A character who becomes a vehicle's
pilot is removed from the battlefield and placed on the
vehicle's character card; all of a pilot's powers and abilities are
ignored, unless a game effect specifies it activates when the
character is a pilot. When a character becomes its pilot, the
vehicle may not be given an action until your next turn. A
vehicle may have additional traits called Pilot Abilities. When
a pilot matches any prerequisite listed for a pilot ability, the
vehicle possesses that trait
My question relates to what is "size"?
Can Galactus Pilot The Bug because they both have the same sized Base, or, can The Bug only be piloted by a Giant or smaller, because the Bug has a Giant symbol on his base, which grants him the Great Size ability. (Not to be confused with Tiny Size which is granted by the Tiny symbol.)
Character size information can be found on the PAC above the DAMAGE powers section.
It states:

The damage symbol represents the character’s size. characters are smaller than characters, who are smaller than characters, who are smaller than characters. Smaller characters do not block the line of fire drawn to or from larger characters

Just in case there's any confusion. 6x3 is not the character's "Size" in Heroclix. The characters size is or or or .
Right, but until that part was pointed out to me, I couldn't find a reference to "Size" in the rule book or players guide. Didn't even think to look at the PAC.
Might be something to add to the Glossary in the rule book.

From the Player's Guide:
As indicated on the Powers and Abilities Card, smaller characters do not block the line of fire to or from larger characters.

Woah woah woah, wait just a second.
Since when did giants stop blocking LOF between colossals?
I was definitely under the impression that both a giant and a colossal are on elevation [insert large number of choice here], and block LOF to others who are either giant or colossal.
