According to a mate, these are the profiles for custodes and sisters:

Custodes:
ws6, bs4, s5, t5, w2, i5, a3, ld10, 2+/4++.
hatred, furious charge, rampage.

Sisters:
ws5, bs4, s3, t3, w1, i5, a2, ld10, 2+.
Preferred enemy (psykers), hatred (psykers)
furious charge and a pariah blade which inflicts ID on any model with the psyker special rule and otherwise is ap3.
they will have the pariah rule meaning they can never be the target of any psychic power. and all psychic powers cease to be in effect within 6″ of the unit

Now remember GW said there would be rules for the custodes in the next White Dwarf as it is printed on the cover even:

5 Tartaros Terminators look to come with 5 different torsos, a heavy flamer and Reaper Autocannon (a staple in the days of the heresy), bolt weapons as well as the combo Lightning Claw / Power Fist we saw for the Cataphractii plastics.

The Adeptus Custodes Guard look to be semi multi-part with various weapons ranging from Guardian spears to Stormshields. It also appears the headress topknots are optional, and the rear torso bits do not have backpacks. The standard bits are also clearly visible as well.

Oh my it looks like Greigor is a separate sprue, along with Ahriman, giving GW the option of selling them separately later on down the road!
