What's to post? I made a start on a raw list, and you're going to
finish for me, right? ;)
Seriously, here's the basic list I came up with for Studios minifigs.
I'm not claiming that this list is complete or accurate; I spent at
least 10 minutes on it. :)
d0 Spielberg/director
d1 Tube-top Actress (aka, Gail Storm #3) torso only
d2 Production Assistant (aka, Becky Blastinov #2) Head should
probably be Space Port
d3 Key Grip (uses SP2 'space face') torso only
d4 Cameraman (uses Docs face from Rock Raiders) torso only
d5 Stuntman (not sure if face is orginal or not)
d6 Spiderman
d7 Peter Parker
d8 Green Goblin
d9 Mary Jane Watson
da Werewolf
db Good guy
dc Heroine (Mary Jane Watson #2) torso only
dd Frankenstein's monster +head piece
de Dr. Frankenstein
df Vampire
dg Igor
dh Sound guy (bats torso)- torso only
dj Mummy
dk Nesquick Rabbit (maybe should go under Tx range - for
corporate icons)
I asked Larry to flesh out this skimpy list a bit, he's working up a
spreadsheet that looks like it should be very reuseful. A couple of
files are posted to the request non-system, and of course Larry has now
submitted 973pdb.dat.

Interesting. I can open the head template with no problem. It doesn't
seem to want to save as DAT, though. I didn't get a crash.
It seems like it would be hard to get scans that are an unrolled version
of the minifig head. That is, you'd have to roll the head along the
surface of the scanner while it was scanning. Or (slightly more
practical) you'd have to do several scans of the head, from different
angles, then cut strips from each scan and paste them together.
Wouldn't it make more sense to build the quadpad file as if drawing on a
glass pane placed in front of the minifig face, then project that
construction onto the pseudo-cylinder by updating the Z values?

| (...) That is how I've coded up minifig heads in the past. Mentally divide face 45 degrees either side of the centre line and draw the region from +45 to -45 as a plane, then project that onto the four facets of the hexdecagon. Then if necessary, do (...)
