In short: Two video releases recapping events from the Gundam Wing TV series. Each Operation Meteor video contains an 'Odd' episode and an 'Even' episode.

Soon after, the 'Odd' episodes feature Heero, Trowa and Wufei, while the 'Even' episodes feature Duo and Quatre. The episodes also featured brief new footages of the characters after the final episode of the TV series.

This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 4 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
