The Studios had those for a number of years, back when the Spectacle of Lights was on the now-just-a-memory Residential Street. I suspect they were dropped for budgetary reasons.
Residential Street was the only really effective venue for SOL (love that acronym). Walking down that street, it really felt like visiting a suburban neighborhood that had gone completely bonkers with the holiday decor. on the other hand, putting those millions of lights on the New York Street facades just feels like a theme park that put up a bunch of lights. The sense of taking a journey is gone, and there is little charm to the spectacle as it now stands.
I still have a pair of those hologram glasses in a drawer somewhere.
