This is a nice question, and I look forward to seeing a definitive answer. Meanwhile, let me point out that it is known that a convex polytope in $E^n$ is not always determined by a finite set of its projections, but it is determined by all of its 2D projections. I think this is in Gardner's Geometric Tomography.
