You can host any kind of Control in a ToolStripControlHost and then add it to items of ToolStripDropDown and then show the dropdown:

Dim dropdown As ToolStripDropDown = New ToolStripDropDown()
Dim c As UserControl1 = New UserControl1()
Dim host As ToolStripControlHost = New ToolStripControlHost(c)
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles Button2.Click
    If (dropdown.Items.Count = 0) Then
        host.BackColor = Color.White
        host.Margin = New Padding(2)
        c.MinimumSize = New Size(120, 100)
        dropdown.Padding = New Padding(0)
        dropdown.Margin = New Padding(0)
        dropdown.Items.Add(host)
    End If
    dropdown.Show(Button2, 0, Button1.Height)
End Sub
