I remember those from the 90s. It was impossible to walk anywhere without hearing them crunching underfoot. Not sure if I'd be looking forward to those again.

Yep, messy and noisy -- but they make for great pictures. They're slow and they stay put, so easy models to work with. The orange/red eyes give you a dramatic, monstrous look.
