Well, if we all look at the map of the mediterrainien, we see that Troy is located on the Hellespont. this is extremly close to greek lands, we're talking very few miles in sea faring. perhaps there was a un-recorded greek migration over the Hellespont? seems possible to me....

Possibility is not reality. Reality is only one among many possibilities.

While it's clear that Greeks took over that region in the classical period, in the Mycenean period it is still not clear how much if any part of Anatolia reeks had colonized.

Notice also that Troy was standing there since c. 3500 BCE, while Greeks arrived much later. My guess is that while Troy and Mycenean Greeks were obviously interacting, the very destiny that Greek consolidation had fro Troy was its total destruction as narrated in the Illyad.

Trojans? I recall reading somewhere that they werer closely related to the Pelasgians. Nevertheless, they must have had contact with the Mycenaeans, and it would be a stretch to say they were "pure Pelasgians".

And your evidence to verify; if not substantiate this is....?
