Good free effects plugins in bundles?

I was wondering if anyone could point me to some good general effects (reverb, chorus, etc.) freeware plugins that are bundled together in one download. I looked at the main thread, but found mostly links to individual plugs. While that's fine and I don't mind exploring them, I thought someone might have made collections of some of their favorites available for download.
My thanks in advance,
Brian

One that springs to mind is the mda bundle of effects (30 in total). Don't be put off by the lack of a GUI in these plugs - they are all pretty good 'workhorse' effects. The link to the windows versions is here:

There are a few others around too. Another I remembered is BuzzRoom - these are just compressors:

I'm assuming you're looking for a bundleffects from the one dveloper. As far as I know, there are no compilations that individual users have put together. Even with freeware, there may be legal issues surrounding doing this (anyone have anything to add on that?) There was a thread about that very topic a few weeks ago, but I had a search and couldn't find it. If the legal issues could be ironed out, I reckon its a great idea to have bundles of favourites.

The SH-1 bundle is very good !
each plugin only takes about 1%cpu, you have reverb, chorus, flanger, filter ,modulation, etc.
They all are simple and very efficient (and the have a gui).
The BlueLIne bundle, even if it is quite old and uglynow, is good, with every conventionnal effect you can expect; I think it works both DX and Vst if I remember well.

Seconded. The MDA plugs are very good. I have had a lot of use out of the DestroyFX plugs; in fact Smartelectronix on the whole make very good plugins which are more than worth the download time. More Betabugs OSX ports please! 
Coffee please, black, no sugar.

Agree on both.
