Different looking fruits on same plant

Hi all, I'm new to the forum and I have a question about my pumpkin vines. We planted seeds from a pumpkin we got last yr. from a local farmer. Clearly some cross pollination took place (something I didn't think about until just a few weeks ago) as I have three different looking fruits all growing from the seeds from the same pumpkin. The pumpkin we bought last yr. was some kind of pie variety. What do you think the chances are of the fruits tasting more like a pumpkin than whatever else they were crossed with? I've attached a pic of each of the three fruits just so you can see what I'm talking about.

I have several of this kind of fruit.

I only have one of each of these two.
