Pretty cool effect, odd summoning requirement. Nice all around.

|Enthusiastic Mask of Images, Amusa|||Spellcaster/Effect|Light|4||1700|1000|When a monster is special summoned, you can special summon this card from your hand. If you do, this card gains the effect of the special summoned monster. You can tribute this card to special summon 1 "Mask of Images" monster from your deck, except "Enthusiastic Mask of Images, Amusa".|
Another interesting card. Mostly a scout so nothing much to say.

|Irritated Mask of Images, Agita|||Spellcaster/Effect|Fire|4||1900|0|When this card is summoned, select 1 other face-up card on the field. This card gains its effect until the end phase. When this card destroys a monster by battle, this card gains the destroyed monster's effect.|
Gaining spell/trap effects will make interesting combos. Solid card.

|Caring Mask of Images, Compassia|||Spellcaster/Effect|Earth|4||1000|1900|As long as this card is on the field. negate the effect of all other monster on the field, except "Mask of Images" monsters. Once per turn, you can discard 1 "Mask of Images" card to special summon 1 non-"Mask of Images" level 4 or lower monster from your graveyard. If you do, this card gains the summoned monster's effect.|
So here we get a peek at what the deck might look like. Images mixed with tech cards. Obligatory Xyz maker.

|Agonizing Mask of Images, Prodis|||Spellcaster/Effect|Wind|4||1800|200|When this card is summoned, select 1 face-up card on the field. THis card gains the effect of the selected card until the end phase. Once per turn, you can change the effects of all monsters on the field to the original effects to draw 1 card for every 2 monsters affected by this effect.|
Does this restore negated effects?

|Angry Mask of Images, Raige|||Spellcaster/Effect|Dark|4||1600|1400|Once per turn, negate the effect of 1 face-up card on the field, and this card gains its effects until the end phase. When this card declares an attack, tribute 1 other "Mask of Images" monster you control to destroy 1 card on the field.|
Yeah, cool. Replays allow for more destruction?

|Optimistic Mask of Images, Desire|||Spellcaster/Effect|Earth|4||0|0|When a monster is added to your opponent's hand outside of the draw phase, you can special summon this card from your hand. This card gains the added monster's effects, ATK, and DEF. When this card inflicts battle damage to your opponent, reveal 1 "Mask of Images" monster in your hand then draw 1 card.|
Guess LCCG uses a lot of toolboxing which makes this good.

|Lonely Mask of Images, Isola|||Spellcaster/Effect|Dark|4||1000|1000|During either player's turn, you can discard this card if you control a face-up "Mask of Images" monster to negate the effect of a face-up monster on the field and have 1 "Mask of Images" monster gains its effect.|
Better electron, good.

|Euphoric Mask of Images, Plaisir|||Spellcaster/Effect|Light|4||1400|1400|You can discard this card if you control a "Mask of Images" monster to negate the attack of your opponent's monster, and end the battle phase.|
also good.

|Emotionless Mask of Images, Tabula Rasa|||Spellcaster/Xyz/Effect|Light|4||2500|2500|[2 "Mask" monsters] This card can only be summoned when "Theatre of the Lost Hope" is face-up on the field. This card gains the effect of the Xyz materials used to summon this card. Once per turn, you can detach 1 Xyz material to select 1 monster in either players graveyard, banish it and this card gains its effect as long as this card is on the field. You can only control 1 face-up "Emotionless Mask of Images, Tabula Rasa".|
3000 ATK powerhouse. Effects make for very strategic plays. Pretty cool. I also like the name and get the reference

|Theatre of the Lost Hope|||Spell Card|Spell||Field|||When this card is activated, select 1 Field Spell Card or Continuous Spell/Trap Card in your graveyard. This card gains its effect as long as this card is face-up on the field. All "Mask" monsters gains 500 ATK. When a "Mask" monster is removed from the field, you can discard 1 card to add 1 card with the same name from your deck to your hand.|
Cool all around and fairly balanced.

|Blank State Heart|||Spell Card|Spell||Quick-Play|||Reveal 1 "Mask" monster in your hand, then activate the effect of 1 spell card from your graveyard. If you control an Xyz monster, activate the effect of another card from your graveyard, then discard 1 "Mask" card.|
Maybe specify if it's an ignition effect you're looking for. Just to make it clearer.

|66 Images of a Mask|||Trap Card|Trap||Counter|||Discard 1 "Mask" card. Negate the effect of a Spell/Trap card and destroy it, then if you control a "Mask" monster, the monster gains the following effect: Once per turn during either players turn, you can discard 1 card and banish 1 card that was destroyed by the effect of a "Mask" card from either players graveyard to activate the effect of the banished card (if there's any effect that can be activated).|
Would be a pain to keep track of in a duel, but I see nothing wrong.

The effect gaining stacks with their original effects.

Cannot be special summoned. During either player's standby phase, you can banish 1 "Mask" monster in either player's graveyard. If you do, this card gains its effect. When this card destroys a monster by battle, add 1 "Mask" monster from your deck to your hand, then discard 1 card.
This + field spell card = a little too brutal for my liking? Idk. You banish all their cards and then gain all their effects which in the right time, can make it invincible. Maybe gain the effect until the end phase.

Demon Mask of Raging Images
*4 Fiend/Effect Dark 1500/1000
When a Spellcaster-type "Mask" monster you control battles, you can discard this card. If you do, banish the monster that the Spellcaster-type "Mask" monster battles until your next standby phase, then Spellcaster-type "Mask" monster gains its effect.
Cool variation on honest.

Fox Mask of Estatic Images
*4 Beast/Effect Earth 1500/1000
During either player's turn, you can discard this card to have all "Mask" monsters you control be unaffected by the effect of Spell and Trap Cards until the end phase.
Ecstatic? This is alright but more often than not, the Child will be favored

Child Mask of Hopeful Images
*4 Fairy/Effect Wind 1500/1000
When a "Mask" monster you control would be destroyed, you can discard this card instead. If you do, you can pay 1000 life points to have it gains the effect of 1 face-up monster on the field.
Good.

Mask of the Rampaging Dragon
*4 Dragon/Effect Fire 1900/1000
If you control no Spellcaster-type monster, destroy this card. You can special summon this card if you control a Spellcaster-type monster. You cannot summon another monster while this card is face-up. Once per turn, you can discard 1 "Mask" monster to destroy all cards in front of this card.
This is quite nice, but maybe add some effect that lets it switch columns to fight back a little - you could lock yourself with no escape

Mask of the Dignified Lion
*4 Beast/Effect Light 1800/1000
If you control no Spellcaster-type monster, destroy this card. You can special summon this card if you control a Spellcaster-type monster. You cannot summon another monster while this card is face-up. Once per turn, you can move this card to another monster card zone on your side of the field. When this card battles, if there is no cards in front of this card, you can discard 1 "Mask" monster to double this card's ATK until the end phase.
Interesting, and good. Above card needs that kind of love

Mirrored Mask of the Heart's Image
*4 Spellcaster/Effect Water 1700/1000
When this card destroys a monster by battle and you control no other monsters, you can tribute this card to special summon 1 "Mask" monster from your deck, ignoring any summoning conditions. When this card is in your graveyard when a Spellcaster-type "Mask" monster except "Mirrored Mask of the Heart's Image" would be destroyed, you can banish this card instead. If you do, during the end phase of the turn, Xyz Summon 1 "Mask" monster from your extra deck by using the Spellcaster-type "Mask" monster and 2 other cards from your hand or your side of the field as the Xyz materials. It gains the effect of all the cards attached to it.
This makes for some fun combos seeing a monster gain a spell/trap effect

All monsters on either player's graveyard is also treated as a "Mask" monster. All "Mask" monsters gains 500 ATK. The activation and the effects of a "Mask" monsters cannot be negated. "Mask" monsters cannot be flipped face-down or banished.
I get you're trying to counter nox exploiter and eccentric electron but man, this is a ton of effects. It basically opens you up only to destruction and discourages other methods of dealing with a card. Maybe something like "Negate the effects of all monsters in the hand, except "Mask" monsters" for some good old anti-meta but I think preventing total negation, banishing and flipping is taking it too far. Plus, how do you use Lady's effect if you can't banish Mask monsters?

Blank State Heart
Spell Card
Add 1 "Mask" monster from your deck to your hand. If you control no monsters and your opponent controls a monster, you can also send 1 "Mask" monster from your deck to the graveyard. You can only activate 1 "Blank State Heart" per turn.

If you control a Spellcaster-type "Mask" monster and your opponent controls more monster than you do, you can activate this card. Neither players can special summon until your opponent next turn's end phase.
I like it. Don't see any problems.

I think i'll put an effect limit to balance it. if it doesn't worked out well, i'll just remove the either player's part.

It's designed to work with the below card. As a standalone monster, it'll have the problem. Things'll change if Lady that gets the effect and the effect of the card below.

I'll find a way to fix this. the actual idea is that a performance or a dance shouldn't be interrupted by things.
