With all the projects running such a wide gamut of themes, it’s hard to say what LEGO would go for. Community seems to be a safe bet only because of Ideas’ propensity to churn out sitcom-based sets. I don’t see any of the other license-based projects making it. The only other two projects that I think even remotely has a good chance of being becoming actual sets are The Mountain Windmill and Seasons In Time: Calendar. I kinda want Fall Guys to be seriously considered, but I am completely biased in that regard. I do like the solution the creator used to represent the bean avatars, but LEGO’s CMF line is rife with in-game costumes already. And LEGO is all about the minifig so I don’t see them adopting the 2×2 cylinder shapes for this one assuming it makes it to approved status, which it probably won’t.

LEGO Ideas also posted a follow-up post addressing the surge in qualifying projects. The First 2020 Review cycle also saw a large number of projects, 26 to be exact. Clearly they are aware of the situation and are considering making changes, but nothing has been announced yet.
