The Reaplugs suite you can download from the Reaper site is actually a 
stripped-down version of the plugins collection which comes with the 
program. The reaverb and reaverbate vst's are not a part of the 
standalone version.
Also Reatune, Reapitch and Reavooice aren't a part of it. you also don't 
have the presets which come with reaper.
Anyway the Cockos plugins are absolutely fantastic!
