===Broomsticks=== [[File:The Making of Harry Potter 29-05-2012 (Broomsticks).jpg|thumb]] [[Magical Objects in Harry Potter#Broomsticks|Broomsticks]] are one of the forms of transportation for wizards and witches, as well as being used for playing Quidditch. The three most prominent broomsticks in the books are the Nimbus 2000, Nimbus 2001, and the '''Firebolt''', all three of which have been produced as merchandise by [[Warner Bros.]]<ref>{{cite news|last1=MacDonald|first1=Brady|title=Let's go on a virtual shopping spree at Universal's new Wizarding World|url=http://www.latimes.com/travel/themeparks/la-trb-wizarding-world-shops-universal-studios-hollywood-20160324-story.html|newspaper=LA Times|access-date=29 May 2017|date=24 March 2016}}</ref> The Nimbus is introduced as one of the best broomsticks in the wizarding world. Harry receives a Nimbus 2000 in ''[[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone|Philosopher's Stone]]'' so that he can play for Gryffindor house. In ''[[Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets|Chamber of Secrets]]'', [[Lucius Malfoy]] buys a full set of the more advanced Nimbus 2001s for the [[Slytherin]] team as a bribe, so they would choose his son [[Draco Malfoy|Draco]] as Seeker that year. The Firebolt later supersedes the Nimbus as the fastest and one of the most expensive racing brooms in existence. Harry receives a Firebolt model from his godfather, [[Sirius Black]], after his Nimbus 2000 is destroyed during a Quidditch match in ''[[Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban|Prisoner of Azkaban]]''. In ''[[Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire|Goblet of Fire]]'', Harry uses his Firebolt to escape the [[Hungarian Horntail]] during the Triwizard Tournament.
