Bought this at the Long Beach Antique Flea Market for $5. I am not a big Planet of the Apes fan (which in this case means not a big fan but do not dislike it). But it is a nice looking vintage box from the 70s. It does have a partial model.
This seems to be similar to the 1:13th scale models by Aurora which were also snap together. They look better when glue is used as the parts fit rather loosely.
I do not recall the Addar Products Corp. Most products like these were made by companies like Aroura or MPC. Does not seem like Addar lasted long.
Very cool original Planet of the Apes model
Very nice . Love the planet of the apes movies at least the first three . That should be a great collectible piece .

I think Addar was an Aurora spinoff.
Thank you very much Ms.CrystalShip. That was a good ending.
Thank you very much Toyrebel. I did find out the models were sculpted by the same artist Aurora used.
Thank you

Looks like Addar was indeed an attempt to resurrect Aurora. Sadly it did not last long.
Great find, buddy.
