Edit-
I also have these too (and not on your list)
Alpha-1, (Alpha-juno-1)
LA-Wave 01,
Mini SE, (Mini Moog)
OB-80 v0.3, (Oberheim emulation)
OC=II (Octave Cat emulation)
Pro-DG (Moog Prodigy)

RU-J60 (Juno 6 / 60 emulation)
Zanna 2
They will be added to the bundle at the end of the week. I'll write a post as soon as it is available on my Depositfiles area.
And for everyone... I'm currently thinking of the creation of a website for the collect of all the most difficult findable of all these freeware gems from the past. At us all, I think that we can create very nice collections ordered by developers who have definitively disappeared from the web.
I'm currently comparing the offers of several webhosters...

I lost track of Opulent Audio bLO-FIsh, tenacity and Dirty Girl. I tried "A-Z zillions of links" list and archive.org.
Links provided at http://opulentaudio.blogspot.com are not working.
I found only restricted demo versions of those synths.

By quick look, Angular Momentum still has most of those on offer at their own website: http://www.amvst.com/
Also note the copyright:

They got that part in bold on their own site, I hope you have that sorted out. I don't want to sound like a moral police, but BlackWinny, doing what you have been doing so actively lately - apparantly on a very large scale - is really a breach of license terms. Atleast you never mention that you have got the items cleared. This thread has been about sharing odd gems among enthusiasts longer than either of us have been registered here, but you've taken it to a whole new level and I don't think it's entirely positive, or 'in the spirit' of the thread. (and that's just that, my opinion)http://www.amvst.com/copyright wrote: Copyright and License

For the very old freewares of disappeared companies, there will be no problem.
But you are right concerning these one from Angular Momentum. Thank you for your alert. I'm going to remove this link. No problem, I never do anything illegal as soon as I know that it is illegal.

As you can see, as soon as I have read your alert I have removed the link.
And concerning the other links, no, there are no brake of law. This one is even not an exception, simply I hadn't read that mention on their website. Now that you pointed it out, I removed the link. Simply.

Ugo stuff have similar notices, if you bother to read the documentation that come with the software (which are still hosted by the developer). You need an alert to stop large-scale distribution of people's works, who are you, Google? I'm not going to go through the stuff you provide just to provide you alerts (plus there's a good chance I have the stuff from long time). Just keep in mind that freeware != do what the heck you want, there's almost always some license terms that you need to agree with to use the software -- and most plugins are not distributed with licenses permitting redistribution.
Or atleast have the decency to give a working link to the developer's site when they are still up and running when you upload entire portfolios.

In defence to BlackWinny:
I have downloaded long forgotten vst's from his links since I joined here and have had in the zip folder, links to the original forum post (or website if still alive) All of the things I have downloaded from his links have been freeware, I am forever grateful for him sharing his wealth of knowledge and his contribution to the forum (Just the same as all the other helpful people on here)
I am sure no breach of licencing terms were intentional. And as posted above, BlackWinny has removed the link that was pointed out from your alert.

I fully support BlackWinny. Thanks to his uploads I found real treasures of VST freeware for which I was searching very long without success. I am sure that breach of licensing that happened was unintentional - and it was immediately corrected.

I want to apologize, I was way too harsh in my wording. "He's riding a high horse" is a fitting expression for me. What it boils down to is sharing a wealth of sounds, and anyone can appreciate having odd synthesizers & effects, no denying that. Over the years I think I've uploaded thing or two as well.
I guess that was largely what my irritation was about, the scale. People have been sharing odd thing here and there and eventually the links have become dead, but entire portfolios of stuff that are still online, stuff that can be found by searching for them? I just think it's a bit much. And with old time stuff, there's always a story behind why some plugins are abandoned, like what happened with AlgoMusic.. Even in such a scenario, the plugins don't become public domain. And it really doesn't matter if they're already online somewhere or not. I don't know, BlackWinny, sorry for my overreaction and the drama, it wasn't really called for. Still, do consider this plugin-excavation business is slightly shady in terms of licenses and the developers' wishes for the distribution of their works -- and doing it on large scale isn't much different from just uploading the stuff on some warez site. (Bit exaggarated, but I hope you can find my point somewhere in there.)
Anyways, everyone carry on, I'll step back in to my corner to ride my donkey and feel sorry...

quick question re: the EFM collection: are any of those ones
that kick up demo messages? i would really like a shortlist
collection of ones that don't. i chucked a load into my
VST folder a few years ago and it was unworkable, and
i never got round to sorting out which were the 'good ones'
(i still have the extracted EFM folder somewhere, meaning
to do it..)
