Hinox Brothers

The Hinox Bros are the trio of bosses of Hinox Mine and Bomb Storage in. They are a trio of Hinox brothers dressed in overalls and wearing helmets. Like the rest of their species, they throw Bombs as their method of attack.

Hinox Mine
In Hinox Mine, only two of the brothers are fought, though the Links initially face one. The Hinox Bros are battled on moving mine carts that circle around the boss Stage. The first brother will throw Bombs at the Links whenever their mine carts come close. To fight the brother, the Links must grab the Bombs he throws over and throw them back into his mine cart, so that they will explode and damage him. Hearts on the ledges can be collected with the Boomerang, along with Rupees. After the first brother takes enough damage, he will reappear with his second brother on a double mine cart, and both will throw Bombs at the Links. The pair are fought in the same manner. After one Hinox is defeated, he will kneel over and stop throwing Bombs, allowing the Links to focus their efforts on the other one.

Bomb Storage
In Bomb Storage, the Links face all three brothers, but initially face two. The brothers appear from balconies across a gap and throw Bombs at the Links. As the gap is too wide for the Links to throw their Bombs back, the Links must instead use the Gust Jar to blow the Hinoxes' Bombs back into their balconies and damage them. After both Hinoxes are defeated, the doors to their balconies will close, and the third brother will emerge from another.

The Hinox Bro will rotate between the room's four balconies. He throws giant Bombs at the Links capable of giant explosions, which will inflict heavy damage. He then laughs for a few seconds before his door closes, and reappears from another. The Bombs are too heavy for the Gust Jar to blow back; instead one of the Links must place a smaller Bomb onto the floor for another Link to propel it into the Hinox's balcony using the Gust Jar. As the battle prolongs, extra doors will open to empty balconies in an attempt to delude the Links. Hardhat Beetles will also appear on the Links' platform to try to push them off, though these can be defeated for Hearts and Rupees. Likewise, as the Hinox takes more damage, he will increase his speed and more doors will start to open. After taking enough damage, the Hinox Bro will be defeated.
