I doubt they intended to limit the supply.
Keep in mind that they had to factor in several things :
(1) the potential audience for the set
(2) the fact that the old data predates The Event(tm)  and is therefor even more unreliable
(3) reduced supply capacity across the world as a result of The Event(tm)

I think you’d be a millionaire if you could accurately predict the required stock for a product such as this.
This isn’t a consumable with a fairly predictable cycle.
It’s an expensive toy in an unpredictable niche market.

Cynical me thinks that the 120 days delay may be related to the possible launch of ‘start collecting’ sets for both armies in this boxed set.
I don’t know what the timeframe was between the Vanguard vs Chaos marines boxed set and their respective ‘start collecting’ sets appearing at retail, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this was related.
