Potion of Alter Self
Ring of Alter Self
Wand of Alter Self
It's all in the custom magic items table and text. That'll work.

If you can handle "poly"-morph being spelled "meta"-morph,
and that it's the exact same spell/power, then:

... works.
4 * 7 * 2000 = 56000 so the extra cost is the extra line of text (?!)

Fleshshifter armor (Book of Vile Darkness) is +1 leather armor that lets you use alter self at will. Maiden's hands (Dragon 300) and doppelganger armor (Dragon 291) give you limited alter self abilities.

Of course the Hat of Disguise can give you Disguise Self all day, but that has no real combat advantages (except possibly tactical ones).

D&D is tricky.

Or put Alter Self into a Drow Insignia item?
