Shatz- I'm not really sure what the Elemental argument started from, or what the point of it was... but the Collosal/Dragon/SU abilities is a combination of a few things. By L10, the Shifter Prestige from MotW gains the ability to WildShape into any animal from Diminutive to Gargantuan. Plus it gains access to a number of non-animal forms, normally restricted no normal Wildshape. One of these is "Dragon Form." It allows a Wildshape into a Dragon. (Which still follows all WildShape rules- no SU abilites, breath weapons, etc...)
There is an Epic Feat which specifically states that a Wildshape character may turn into one of the basic Dragon types- and right in the text says the dragon gains all abilities of that dragon, including breath weapons. The text also says the dragon's max size is limited to the largest Animal size the wildshaper has access to.
Normally, this would be Gargantuan. Scarry enough. The second feat in question, also from the Epic Book, upgrades the max Animal size from G to C. So straight from the sourcebooks, it looks to be pretty simple. He can shift into a Dragon, the Dragon Feat gives him the SU abilities, and the size feat gives him a max of a Collosal Dragon.
As for other forms, depends on the text.
