Gonna fly now: Sylvester Stallone, 71, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, 70, posed together in front of a statue of Rocky when Arnold visited Sly at his home on Christmas
In the shot, posed in front of Sly's famed Rocky statue, Stallone wore a white collared button-up shirt with black pants, while Schwarzenegger went festive with a red sweater with black pants.
The New York native, who's currently working on the sequels to Creed and Escape Plan, also shared a shot he took with his family in front of the Christmas tree in their home. He posed with wife Jennifer Flavin and daughters Sophia, Sistine and Scarlet.
The two silver screen tough guys are not only good friends, but colleagues as well, as they've co-starred in movies such as Escape Plan and The Expendables.
It wasn't always such a rosy relationship however, as Arnold in October described the fierce professional rivalry that developed between them at this fall's Beyond Fest in Los Angeles.

'I’m so glad we straightened out our mess because it wasn’t pretty,' Arnold said in a Q&A to commemorate the 30th anniversary of his film Predator at the film event, SlashFilm reported. 'We were attacking each other in the press relentlessly. We called each other names and called out our weak points, and it was so competitive.'
The competition between the actors - who each headlined blockbuster action movies throughout the 80s and 90s - centered around who had the better build, box office revenues, on-screen killing totals and even the size of their on-screen weapons.
'He had to use bigger weapons,' Arnold said. 'So then it was a competition of who had the biggest gun, and then who uses the biggest knife. Do you remember the Rambo knife became so big it was like a sword? No one has a knife like that!
'But Stallone had one built, so I had to come in with a bigger one - this is how it went.'
