Is it possible to use the AWS package in the Standard Library to make a Sequence Diagram?

If I use it naively :

@startuml
!include <aws/common>
!include <aws/Storage/AmazonS3/AmazonS3>
!include <aws/Storage/AmazonS3/bucket/bucket>

BUCKET(one, "1")
BUCKET(two, "2")
one -> two
two --> one
@enduml

I end up with a Visio-style diagram instead of a sequence diagram:

Diagram resulting from the naive approach

If I force the objects to be participants:

@startuml
!include <aws/common>
!include <aws/Storage/AmazonS3/AmazonS3>
!include <aws/Storage/AmazonS3/bucket/bucket>

BUCKET(one, "1", participant)
BUCKET(two, "2", participant)
one -> two
two --> one
@enduml

I get a sequence diagram but lose the icons:

Participant approach to drawing the diagram

Is there any way to get the AWS icons into a sequence diagram?
