Gems take time to heal, right? And, in Monster Buddies, whenn the gem was popped, the gem automatically started forming.

So, when the bubble popped, when the gem shards popped, it formed into arms, and those arms might be an body part of actual Gems that finished forming, but it was incomplete because it was broken into pieces, so the body parts would be spread around everywhere. Seems plausible. I think that some of them actually managed to escape.
