Humshrubs in Gameplay

We all read about Humshrubs over at the official Microsoft website... and now we are seeing them in the new movies and images. This time we see a more "green" variety of Humshrub as different to the pink ones previously seen.

On looking at this image...

I have come to realize that part of the game play would be to actually "collect" the Humshrubs.

The "Bounce" vending machine allows you to jump higher... therefore enabling you to jump up and reach the Humshrubs on the side of the cliff.

And in the movie where Munch runs through the Scrab herd you see some of the Humshrubs disapprear as he rolls over them.

We read that the Mudokons harvest these for Spooce Cannons, but it just hit me now that this will be one of the things that you will be getting Abe and Munch to do in the game. It could be that you cannot use a Spooce Cannon until you have collected enough Humshrubs... or maybe the number you collect depends on how many times you can fire the Spooce Cannon.
