It looks like there isn't a way to do this simply with just 3D logic, but it's very easy with Process Flow. I've attached a model that uses a decide in Process Flow to change the 3D shape based on item type.

A simpler solution would be to add the different shapes as Frames on the flowitem's Properties window:

Then use the following code snippet to change the frame based on the item type:

int frameNum = item.Type;
setframe(item, frameNum);
