→‎Theory: Probably not exactly a "camera" bug - it zooms in showing skin when enough armor is shed. It could be it just was not noticed, though.

The fact that other Iron Knuckles dissolve completely when defeated in ''Ocarina of Time'' and ''Majora's Mask'' lead to believe that they are animated by magic. However, carefully positioning the game camera through them reveals a [[Gerudo]] with a vacant stare similar to Nabooru. This is likely because the scene that follows the defeat of Nabooru as a Iron Knuckle shows her armor falling off, with a stunned expression on her face, and all Iron Knuckles use the same body model with slightly different outer armor. Though this head was removed from {{OoT3D}}, their body type is still present as it was in ''Ocarina of Time'' and ''Majora's Mask''. In fact, the Gerudo body is more visible, allowing to clearly see the chest of a Gerudo when the armor falls off, something that seems to be deliberately done as the head was removed from the model. As a result, some believe that all Iron Knuckles are actually heavily-armored Gerudo brainwashed by Twinrova. However, as this model is not readily visible to Link and requires careful camera manipulation to view, means that this is most certainly a camera bug. The same model is reused in ''Majora's Mask'' with the same bug achievable.
