In the absence of any other reply after three days...

Those references are likely the best you're going to get. Many original
images came from Apple and Google, and some from Japanese telcos, but
it's important to reiterate -- possibly to the Twitter group as well --
that there are no "standard" or "official" (by which I mean normative)
glyphs for emoji or any other characters. Any rendering that maintains
the basic identity of the character is fine.
