Should I make a for loop with the rotozoom or use the pygame.transform.rotate and should I put my images in a list a dict or tuple? why don't pygame already come with a sprite object that do that?

I would put them in a list, like so:

self.anim = []
for angle in range(360):
    self.anim.append(pygame.transform.rotozoom(self.originalimage,angle,0))

You can then simply iterate through the self.anim list each frame.
