LED 'smoothing' question

If a regular incandescant bulb (like a #44) is replaced with an LED,
and the original bulb was made to sometimes have a slow on-to-off
effect (by flashing it very fast for different amounts of time for
each pulse), is there a simple way to give the same smooth look to the
led, like with a capacitor or something like that? The bulb strobes
smoothly since the filament does not cool off between the pulses, but
the led is either totally on or off thus it has a flickering
appearance when this strobing is being used. (When on solid, the led
looks normal of course.) This application is a pinball machine, 6v
ac, using one of the new LEDs specially made to be directly
substituted for the #44. Thanks!
