The heptagonal retroprism, also called the heptagonal crossed antiprism, is a prismatic isogonal polyhedron. It consists of 2 base heptagons and 14 isosceles triangles. Each vertex joins one heptagon and three triangles. It is a crossed antiprism based on a heptagon, seen as a 7/6-gon rather than 7/1. It cannot be made uniform.
It is isomorphic to the heptagonal antiprism.

There are an infinite amount of prismatic isogonal compounds that are the crossed antiprisms of compounds of heptagons.
