The token is an exact copy in every way, except that it's a token, not a card.

Soul Foundry puts a token copy of the imprinted card onto the battlefield. The token is put onto the battlefield, not cast.
(wotc • 2004-12-01)
Most creature tokens have no mana cost and a mana value of 0, but a creature token put onto the battlefield by Soul Foundry has the same mana cost and mana value as the card it copies.

You do not get a chance to pay any optional costs, such as Kicker, on the imprinted card.
