The Wave Arts stuff is OK, but it's been around for awhile and I think it's been surpassed by other plug-ins.
MasterVerb doesn't hold a candle to 2CAudio Breeze IMO and the cost is the same ($149, often on sale for $99). The other good new reverb is ValhallaDSP's ValhallaRoom which is only $50 and it sounds fantastic.
I'm not a big believer in multiband compressors in general, but Cytomic "The Glue" compressor is wonderful on the master bus (or anything else for that matter) and it's only $99.
I wasn't a big fan of the original IK Multimedia's T-RackS, but their Fairchild comp, Pultec EQ, Opto Compressor, Linear Phase EQ, metering and Brickwall limiter are all extremely good. I wouldn't hesitate to use those plugins on production. They have sales and group buys often, so it's a good idea to register on their website to receive notices.
It's good times for plugin addicts!
