Yes and no.  This pumpkin is built entirely from 2x orange bricks; the Halloween
bucket gave us 1x orange bricks.  It contains seven 2x2 (brand new), sixteen 2x3s
(brand new), and eleven 2x4s (brand new), along with nine 2x8s (available in only
1 Arctic set).

Personally, TLC, I'd rather have 1x bricks for building, but that doesn't mean
that I didn't just order 10 for starters;-)
