The description haiku starts out by mentioning the 1999 animated movie The Iron Giant. "Iron Giant" is also a monster type found in later Final Fantasy games.
The name is a reference to Final Fantasy 6's Magitek Armors.
"Kawaii" is Japanese for cute, and is a commonly used phrase among Western fans of Japanese culture.
Mechs, or BattleMechs are War Machines in the popular board, or computer game MechWarrior.
The image is similar to the Daishi/Dire Wolf (Inner Sphere and Clan name, respectively) from MechWarrior, a 100 ton mech. It also bears a resemblance to the WarMech from the original Final Fantasy game.
The Lucky Tam O' Shanter message could be a reference to the MechWarrior game, in which Jump Jets are Mech equipment that lets Mechs jump.
