While the digits are base-6-ish they are used as base 10. i.e. "10", made up of a "1" and a "0", comes after "9". It would be kind of cool if it really were base 6, but no doubt Lego doesn't want to confuse the non-math inclined people out there. (...) (24 years ago, 22-Mar-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

To make LEGO properly hydraulic, some kind of real hydraulic fluid pumping system would be needed. And it would have to take either water or a special hydraulic fluid.
