While pumpkin persons found ground in Asian works in the 1980s and early 1990s, their heads tended to be green instead of orange. This is due to the Japanese pumpkin, known there and in the West as the kobacha, being the default pumpkin over there. In Japan, ''kabocha'' refers to both the green and the orange varieties, so that's where the mix-up came from. Nowadays, the Western pumpkin person is fully adopted and the Japanese kabocha person doesn't show up anymore.
