The LA of 2 puts me off, but so does the idea of playing an aberration that looks like a Malboro. LA buyoff is obvious, but I hoped to do some Incarnate Construct trickery with Warforged and polymorph any object to negate the LA. How could I do this by the RAW?

That is incorrect - the character's ECL would be equal to racial HD + class HD + 2, while its caster level would only be equal to racial HD + class HD. You could buy off the +2 level adjustment using the rules from one of the other books (Savage Species?), but you'd be no better off than a human spellcaster.
