I assume, when you say "toolstrip menu", you're talking about something
derived from System.Windows.Forms.ToolBar.  Regardless, the minimize,
maximize, restore "buttons" are part of a window's title bar, and nothing
else.  You would have to give your ToolBar a title bar for it to have
those buttons; and then they would apply to the ToolBar not the MDI child.

You can disable (or, not enable) the maximize, minimize and restore
buttons for any window; then, you could add your own buttons to your
ToolBar to perform the same actions.  But, you'd be changing the expected
user experience for no good reason--circumventing many Windows features
like Minimize-all or Restore-all.
