@kronos: Where did you get the idea that she can copy herself as she comes into play? It doesn't say that in the rulings. What it says is that you can have her copy ANOTHER shapeshifter that's already out, or not copy anything at all, and then she'll come in as a 0/0.
To clear up some confusion for everyone, this is how it works: You choose the ally to copy while the shapeshifter is on the stack, then it comes into play with that ally's abilities and comes-into-play effects. You do not get to trigger ally effects twice.
So, no, unfortunately the Ghostway idea wouldn't work. It says "any ally on the battlefield" and none will be on the battlefield when it's entering.

OK i have a question. Say i have two Halimar Excavator on the battle field. I'm going to play a Shapshifter and copy the Excavator, my opponent plays a removal spell like oring, my Shapshifter will still come in play as a Excavator since there is an Excavator on the field, right?

The only draw back to this one is that blue allies are so so at best, but only time will tell.

Neat card, I like it, but the flavor text offends my senses somehow. It could have definitely been worded more effectively.

Does this trigger "when an ally comes into play" effects twice - once for the Jwari Shapeshifer itself, and once for the card it became a copy of?

Could the person quoted in the flavor text be the same person quoted in the flavor text of Splinter Twin?
