PyGame attribute error after creating second instance of certain objects

I can create one instance of this class, and it functions fine. However whenever a second instance is attempted to be created, even if the first object has been deleted, it returns an error. This is also odd because there is a class identical to this one, which can have as many instances created as needed with no errors.

Object is being made the exact same way both times.

class GOAL(pygame.sprite.Sprite):
    def __init__(self,spawnx,spawny):
        super().__init__()
        self.image = goal
        self.surf = pygame.Surface(self.image.get_rect().size)
        self.rect = self.image.get_rect(topleft = (spawnx,spawny))

Class initiation code.

goal = GOAL((lineCount*100),(characterCount*100))
all_sprites.add(goal)

Class creation code.

    self.surf = pygame.Surface(self.image.get_rect().size)
AttributeError: 'GOAL' object has no attribute 'get_rect'

Error code.

Please ask if any other code required to be shown. Whole thing is 1000 lines and not all relevant so I have tried to include necessary code.

It looks like you're setting self.image to be goal, which is an instance of GOAL, assuming thats the same goal as in the class initiation code. However, even though GOAL is a pygame.sprite.sprite, that class doesn't have a get_rect function!

I think you want to reference the pygame.Surface instead, according to the example here:

class Block(pygame.sprite.Sprite):

    def __init__(self, color, width, height):
       # Call the parent class (Sprite) constructor
       pygame.sprite.Sprite.__init__(self)

       # Create an image of the block, and fill it with a color.
       # This could also be an image loaded from the disk.
 This--->self.image = pygame.Surface([width, height])
       self.image.fill(color)

       self.rect = self.image.get_rect()
