The Spike impostor is probably Zartan.

That's where things get tricky. The thing is, while Full-Tilt was brought to the Legends World from a point in the JG1 universe set after Zone, Minerva came to the Legends World from the JG1 universe in the year 2021, which is some years before Zone. And yet, very little time has passed in the Legends World between Minerva's arrival there and Trypticon's arrival there. In fact, Megatron arrived in the Legends World from a point even after G-2 (further after Zone) in the JG1 universe, yet even though he came from an even later point that Trypticon, he arrived in the Legends World before even Minerva did. Thus, it would seem that time in the Legends World does not correspond to time in the JG1 universe, as it seems that anyone from the JG1 universe can just come and go to the Legends World with no regard for chronology or the passage of time in the JG1 universe.
That said, while we know that Minerva came to the Legends World from the year 2021 in the JG1 universe, we still do not know, officially, what year the Masterforce cartoon is set in. All we know is that it is set at some point between 2011 and 2021, but given that all of the Masterforce characters who have thus far appeared in the Legends manga look no older than they did in the cartoon, it is plausible that the Masterforce cartoon takes place at some point closer to 2021 than not. If anything, Minerva (and the rest of the Masterforce humans) may have aged one year since her appearance in the cartoon, but that's just a guess since we still don't know what year Masterforce was set in.

We'll have to wait and see. Though, since the PotP Grimlock toy is a combiner, Takara may release it not as part of the Legends line but as part of a revival of the Unite Warriors line, which could very well see Grimlock in his PotP Combiner body at a point in his life before he became a Headmaster rather than after. But, then again, it could just as well be that he does become a combiner after his time as a Headmaster like you suggest. It could go either way, really, so we'll just have to wait and see what Takara does with Grimlock.
