Warner Bros sues over 'Harry Potter' condoms

The makers of the Harry Potter movies are reportedly suing a Swiss prophylactic company over its 'Harry Popper' branded condoms.

According to newspaper Bote, Warner Bros is taking legal action against company Magic X, claiming that they are breaching copyright.

The package artwork for the 'Harry Popper' brand shows a purple, glasses-wearing condom twirling a wand with its tongue extended.

"The image of my client is in danger," a lawyer representing Warner Bros reportedly said.

'Harry Popper' condoms have allegedly been on sale in Switzerland since 2006.

The latest Potter movie, part one of The Deathly Hallows, is due to open in cinemas this November.
