Eyegore Statues, alternatively called Igors, are stone versions of Eyegores that cannot close their eyes and can only hop slowly to move. However, they share the same weakness as their normal counterpart, being arrows to the eye.

History

The Legend of Zelda series

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords

Igors appear in all four main worlds of The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords, usually only on specific key routes. Oftentimes, they are disguised as identical-looking decorative statues, moving upon being approached or once a specific task is completed. Unlike normal Eyegores from previous, these do not stop following the Links and close their eyes unless the Links leave the general area, instead constantly hopping after them. When this happens, they slowly return to their original spot before going dormant. They can be defeated with five arrows.

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap

In The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, Eyegore Statues appear throughout the swamp of Castor Wilds, starting out dormant. In this appearance, they only activate upon being shot in the eye, and as such act as a roadblock until Link finds the bow, which is also located in the marsh. Upon activation, they act like the ones in Four Swords and can either simply be passed or fought. They are now defeated with three additional arrows or a single Light Arrow, and often drop arrows upon defeat.
