1) Ironwood recieved the same message as Ozpin: "The Queen has pawns", meaning he's preparing for Cinder and the White Fang.

2) It's the Afterbuzz interview. It was one of the first questions and Monty responded that Cinder is slightly older than the cast (I'm guessing mid-20s) but only looks younger because of her heritage (Asian, according to Monty).

3) Ironwood's "show of power" will definately have the White Fang on edge and will most likely start arming themselves for war, hence the gaint robot.
