MSX1: B.C.'s Quest II - Grog's Revenge
The most cartoonish game ever, fully build with hardware sprites.
MSX2: no idea, but I love all the pets from Matra's Sex Bomb Bunny

Auf Wiedersehen Monty - Monochrome, but excellent animation in sprites. Hype - Fluid animation and movements

Oh, and Hydlide 3. I don´t remember a game with masked sprites in MSX 1 (well, Aramo graphics suck).

* Metal Gear
Not only are the sprites big, but their mere design displays excellent evasion (even use-) of limitations
* Higemaru
It takes some talent to create a very recognizable as well as extremely funny looking pirate character using only two 16 x 16 sprites
* Ninja 2 (Ashura no Shou)
Small, but elaborate and colourful

Oh, and Hydlide 3. I don´t remember a game with masked sprites in MSX 1 (well, Aramo graphics suck). But it's not a msx2 game? in generation msx i've found a typical screen 7 image...
