I think with the availability of Rec Sage and two morph Naturalizes, the Monkeys are the more cuttable effects. I'll likely be looking their direction for cuts to add the morph guys in.
I like cutting the monkeys, but then green will have one 3 mana naturalize on a stick (Rec Sage), and four 5 mana options (two morphs, Wickerbough, Acidic Slime). I feel like Rec Sage, Sex Monkeys, and your choice of three of the 5 mana options is a better distribution.
Two morphs? You mean you plan to run both Ainok SurvivalistandNantuko Vigilante? If that's the case, just leave out Vigilante. And especially do not cut Wickerbough Elder for it. That's one of the best Naturalizes on a stick, in my opinion.

Well, the morphs will be blowing stuff up on the 4th turn often enough, which helps to distribute the pace of the effects.
The 4/4 body is relevant, and not having to pay all the mana at once is a really nice feature compared to his 5cc brethren. I think this board generally undervalues the ability to split overall costs into multiple payments.
The reason why I like it in comparison to other cards, is that the 4/4 body is relevant, and I can split the costs between multiple payments. It's the same mana investment, and this is a turn slower, but a 4/4 is a much more resilient body than a 3/2 when the morph isn't relevant.
But like I said, with a morph theme, I'd just play both.
