@Firemunkie - Actually, I think this will work, as neither card references being played, but rather when put into play or when entering the battlefield.

I think you just have to manage the stack properly to be able to return the cards to play without killing them without the possibility of return.

Yes this should work, it just takes some stack management, which some people have trouble with. When the Metamorph enters play having copied Sharuum, its "when Sharuum comes into play" effect triggers. THen state based actions see there are two legendary creatures and sends them both to graveyard. THen the trigger can resolve bringing back Sharuum and then bringing back the Metamorph.

And since the state-based actions send them to the GY before the trigger actually hits the stack, they are both legal targets for the ability as well.
