Expendables the Prequel? Classic photos of Schwarzenegger, Stallone, more

The Expendables III's world premiere is taking place in the UK capital tonight, with stars including Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger expected to be in attendance.
We're hoping for a full-on waltz up the red carpet...
Stallone, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Kellan Lutz and Jason Statham attended a press conference ahead of the screening at the Corinthia Hotel in the capital this afternoon (August 4), where the Rocky star explained the movie's PG-13 rating.
To celebrate the third instalment of the action adventure, we're imagining a prequel by travelling back in time to bring you some classic photographs of the film's main stars.
So here are 15 heyday snaps of Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Snipes and Lundgren looking like young, bicep-bulging mean machines.
Be prepared...
1. Arnold Schwarzenegger as a young whippersnapper bodybuilder back in 1967... The actor flexes his biceps and eye-wateringly explosive-looking pectorals in an advertisement for a German protein product.
2. Arnie shows off...
