Hmmm. Wacky. So you can turn any card in your hand into a fiddly Gray Ogre. But, more usefully, if you cast Blightsteel Colossus this way then you can blink it to turn it into its true form. In fact it's pretty much like giving cards in your hand "morph {inf}".
Also works great with cast-triggers like Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre because the spell isn't a copy of this on the stack, so you do get his Vindicate effect even if he enters the battlefield as a Gray Ogre.

Yes, this would be great fun with all of the Eldrazi titans, and I don't think it would be too broken... but I'm not a developer by any means.
