I have seen one in real life recently. A fairly new one. Cables weren't very obvious on the outside, but they were there, for example around the shoulder joints. And very much on the additional modules.
The Figure robots don't really have cables that are visible. I think the bigger takeaway is that the movement is too fluid, every robot I've ever seen moves like robot, mostly because of how heavy they are. That thing's moving like a human gymnast probably because it is a human gymnast being motion tracked.
