During assimilation the nanomachines would control the new drone's behaviour, obviously including any urge to shape shift. Depends how quick they can change shape, assimilation is a pretty quick process, the Borg usually go for the jugular (literally) when injecting billions of those nanomachines.

What is there to actually interact with? They have no veins, cerebral cortex per se, nothing for the nanites to even deal with.

Probably immune in that case. Add them to the list of species the Borg can't assimilate, such as Species 8472.

Surely you'd be the type to do what Picard did on the holodeck in First Contact. Fill 'em full of lead.
