This is because ToolStripComboBox derives from ToolStripControlHost, not ComboBox. You need to use its Control property to get to the combo box. Like this:

public partial class Form1 : Form {
    public Form1() {
        InitializeComponent();
        ComboBox box = (ComboBox)toolStripComboBox1.Control;
        box.DrawMode = DrawMode.OwnerDrawVariable;
        box.MeasureItem += new MeasureItemEventHandler(box_MeasureItem);
        box.DrawItem += new DrawItemEventHandler(box_DrawItem);
    }

    void box_DrawItem(object sender, DrawItemEventArgs e) {
        // etc..
    }

    void box_MeasureItem(object sender, MeasureItemEventArgs e) {
        // etc..

    }
}

Fill in the event handlers with the code you need to measure and draw the font names in their own font style.
