It is possible that your local auto parts store may have something. They use them for car tail lights.
12 volts is normal for automobiles.

Quoted from markmon:

Cointaker sells flasher bulb LEDs also.

I don't think they have the smaller #44 size bayonet that are 12 volts. I only see 12volts that are #89 sized, or 6 volt #44 sized.
The Balrog LED does not appear to be an ordinary pinball style.

I just noticed that Nascar also has this LED in it:

Ok, here is one with close to the same specs as the Stern LED bulb and you can get it in red:

^I guess that not many people have lost that bulb since it is an LED.

I am pretty sure that last link I posted would be an acceptable option since the bulb basically is the same size and same current and is rated for at least 12 volts (i.e. 13.8V). Also the LOTR LE manual says it is a red LED (model #112-5023-02).

Here is what I am waiting for:

The bulb needs to be a BA9S type that is rated for 12 volts. It is probably best to get a red bulb so it will not wash out the color of the Balrog.

I am not sure how much clearance there is for the bulb inside but I would guess that the all sided surface mounted LED type would be the brightest if it fits within the Balrog:

Quoted from CoinTaker:

Thanks for the reminder. Had these and never listed them. 5 Super Brights with a 44 base. They are like our Super 906's with the 44/47 base.

It looks like that would be a brighter LED than the LED Stern used in the Balrog, but it would probably be better if it was red rather than white.
