There might be easier ways to do this than functions, then. spheres are
simple; cones are basically simple functions; parallelpipeds are just
planes. So I think the only function you  need there is for the cones.
Something like this:

isosurface cone1 color gray color translucent 5 functionxy =
"-0.71*(x**2+y**2)**.5"
