Is that twelve box’s of twelve or just one of twelve

I got one pack of twelve leads but, be warned, opening is is an issue. You have to press on a fragile blue tongue below the box to get it open.

I just bought a 0.5 pencil and it linked to these refills, but these are 2mm? Is this right or should I search for 0.5 lead?

If your pencil is 0.5mm then you need 0.5mm leads. The 2mm leads are bigger, more like ones you would find in a real pencil. I have a number of pencils ranging from 0.5, 0.7 to 2mm. You need to match the leads to the pencil. Each range usually offers HB B 2B etc Hope this helps.

Silly question maybe, but how do you get the leads out of the case?

Push little blue tip at the back up space with a little tool such as a blunt knife or nail file. Cover will then move up and leads will come out - hope this helpsb

A compass with seperate lead section. I do not know the refill size, but need some. 2mm just too small. Where can I get 2.1mm lead refills please?

If you know the manufacturer try searching for 'compass leads' on Amazon. I'd be rather surprised if they do 2.1mm. Most seem to be 2mm. It might be worth searching anyway.
