the word "retro" means "backward-looking", while a "surge" is a "forward movement".

Those aren't really hard definitions? A bit speculative

Ironically, the word "retro" means "backward-looking", while a "surge" is a "forward movement".  Perhaps Retro and Surge had their names switched by accident.

Retro is an Autobot Micromaster from the toyline portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Kickin' it old school.

Retro has seen far too many cities and strongholds fall to the Decepticons, and will hold the line even unto death. His combiner partner Surge does his best to make sure he'll never experience such tragedy again.<ref>More than Meets the Eye #5</ref>

Toys

Generation 1

  • Missile Launcher (Micromaster Combiner Transport, 1990)
    • Accessories: Missile Launcher Transport, 2 missiles, right & left guns, right & left shields/ramps
A redeco of Stonecruncher, Retro transforms into a red crane truck which is intended to be the front half of a bigger crane truck, which he forms with his combiner partner Surge. As a Micromaster Combiner, he can also connect to any other Micromaster Combiner or Combiner Transport to make a new vehicle.
He was only available in a set with Surge and the Missile Launcher.
This mold was also used to make the Autobot Stonecruncher.
