Quick Answer
Kepler Forerunner is Kepler Robotics’ announced full-size humanoid. The public row on our profile: 178 cm (a duplicate row once typo’d that as 178 mm — ignore the millimeter version), 85 kg, 25 kg payload, 8 hours runtime, 40 DOF. Those are reported figures on an announced card. They are not a site acceptance test, and they are not a 9.0.

What it is
A Chinese full-size humanoid listing from Kepler Robotics. There is a separate thinner “Kepler” review URL on this site — same maker soup, do not assume they are identical SKUs without a datasheet.
What is published
A 17-item spec list and one reference. Price: no public MSRP.
Flaws
Announced + aggressive payload/runtime is the risk pattern. The old compare set (Optimus, Figure 02, G1, Apollo, Atlas) was the stencil again.
Real-world usefulness
A bookmark until Kepler publishes a buyer packet and a named customer. Do not budget 25 kg / 8 hours into a labor model.
