Well, the size of a very small pumpkin. It's not a good comparison, partly because pumpkins vary so widely in size. It does have a shape similar to an elongated pumpkin.
For volume, I'd say a pineapple is a better comparison.

I’d say that’s misleading. More like a very small, oblong pumpkin. (Can grab with one hand)

More like a papaya fruit.
